I cannot explain just why I feel like this.

I am going insane – tumbling into an abyss.

     You don't know, you don't know.

Chorus:

With never a backward look you just walked out,

With never an explanation, made your way.

And now I'm left here high and dry without

The girl with whom I'd planned to spend my days,

Without the girl with whom I planned to spend my days.

You claimed that you were crazy about me too.

You said to me, “there is no one quite like you.”

     But, I don't know, I don't know.

        Chorus:

You seemed alive, to thrive through all those years

I now know just how hard you tried to hide your tears

     Why, I don't know. Why, I don't know

         Chorus:
