my favorite bird begins to sing
but yesterday still leaves a sting
And you're no longer here
with glowing memories of you
But you're no longer here
Shame, not the way that it should be
Not the way that it should be, oh no
That I remain alone when you should go
The sleepless night is gone,
just like they've always done
But you're no longer here
to greet them and they'll know
Shame, not the way that it should be
Not the way that it should be, oh no
That I remain alone when you should go
That I remain alone when you should go
to leave me sitting talking to the wall
Oh, not the way that it should be,
Oh, not the way that it should be at all
Oh, not the way that it should be,
It's not the way that it should be at all
Ohh not the way that it should be at all
