Did you think leaving was better
Didn't you hear me call
You said you'd be back
I put my heart in your suitcase
You didn't notice
You didn't know what love is
And you never tried to find out
You never knew the hope of a smile
Or the anguish of a late night
Or cosy nights in
You never knew how much I'm loved now
How good that feels
Well it's too late now
'Cause I put my heart in your suitcase
And you left it there
Your life was a shard
Which you cut me with
When you said goodbye
You didn't want to know what love was
And you didn't even try
I was so needy
Could you feel that?
Did you taste that?
ANSWER ME?
WELL?
You never tried to find out
Never knew the hope of a smile
Or the anguish of a late night
Or cosy nights in
Well I'm loved now
And it feels good
I put my god damn heart in your suitcase
But you didn't even notice.
