Left Behind

[Verse 1] She packed her bags, her heart in tow Left the life she used to know But as she walked away, her tears did flow For the two cats she loved, she had to let go [Pre-Chorus] Memories of them, in her mind replay Their purrs and their cuddles, how they'd brighten her day Now they’re with him, and she’s lost in the fray Regretting the decision, every single day [Chorus] She misses the cats, the ones she had to leave In their soft fur, she used to find reprieve Now she’s all alone, with her heart on her sleeve Wishing she’d taken them, instead of having to grieve [Verse 2] Their toys lie scattered, in an empty home Reminders of the love that’s now overthrown She pictures them waiting, by the door alone Wishing she could hold them, and make them her own [Pre-Chorus] Their whiskers and their paws, etched in her mind She left them behind, trying to be kind But the loneliness she feels, it’s the hurting kind Hoping they’re happy, while she’s stuck in rewind [Chorus] She misses the cats, the ones she had to leave In their soft fur, she used to find reprieve Now she’s all alone, with her heart on her sleeve Wishing she’d taken them, instead of having to grieve [Bridge] She dreams of them at night, curled up by her side In those moments of silence, where she used to confide The love that they shared, now feels like a lie She’d trade anything to go back and try [Chorus] She misses the cats, the ones she had to leave In their soft fur, she used to find reprieve Now she’s all alone, with her heart on her sleeve Wishing she’d taken them, instead of having to grieve [Outro] The days pass slowly, but the pain remains In the quiet of her heart, she feels the chains Of a love lost not just for him, but for her feline friends She hopes they know she loves them, until the very end.
