Left On Your Own

I was young and naive,
and fell for your charms.
Yet tonight I will
silently leave your arms.

I'll tiptoe out,
as the night turns black.
And scurry away,
without looking back.

You sleep in innocence,
blindly unaware.
And it hurts inside,
because I still care.

All my hopes have been
scuttled in mid stream.
And there's more to life
than a worn out dream.

I won't live a lie,
it's too hard to pretend.
Yet you'll always be
more than just a friend.

The sun will find you
confused and alone.
Yet you're better
off left on your own.
