Left Me Hanging - Mary Gauthier, Amy Speace

Trailed by the shadow of another time

When I was yours and you were mine

A kiss goodbye on the Brooklyn side

And you left me hanging.

Limos lined up round the curve

The F train rumble like a buffalo herd

I can’t remember your last words,

You left me hanging.

Chorus:

Lovers leave each other every day

Some do it clean, others betray

Endings reveal us, so they say

You left me hanging.

Every road from me to you

Is lined with what we can’t undo

Violence of silence cruel

Leaves me hanging.

Chorus:

Lovers leave each other every day

Some do it clean, others betray

Endings reveal us, so they say

You left me hanging.

Nothing to measure

Like a sudden change in weather

Streams of air collide and

Expanding and dividing.

Loves enters then it exits

It goes on like this forever!

New York winds blow colder now

Maybe I’m just older now

Too old to keep holding on

To the downward pull of love withdraw.

Chorus:

Lovers leave each other every day

Some do it clean, others betray

Endings reveal us, so they say

You left me hanging.

You left me hanging

You left me hanging
