Title: How could you?
<Verse>
Woke up in the morning
I was left alone
feeling your cold pillow
Woke up in the morning
I had a bad dream
dreamt that you went away
<pre-chorus>
The dream was real,
oh no,
the dream was real, was real, was real ~
<chorus>
How could you do this to me?
How could you leave me at all?
How could you run away and
say nothing happened at all?
How could you say you love me?
How could you promise you'll stay?
How could you run away and
say nothing happened at all?
