He came to her like an arrow in the dark
Saw the passion and the love in her heart
He promised her they’d never be apart
And she believed him
But then like so many times before
He got that feeling started reaching for the door
Couldn’t tell her he was leaving

Chorus
He Cut and Run like a thief in the night
Cut and Run leaving her to wonder why it felt so right
Cut and Run cause he could not face the pain he had caused
Or the hurt in her eyes or the love he had lost
Cut and Run

She woke up next morning to an empty bed
Thought he might be working tried to remember what he said
By the end of the day she thought that maybe he was dead
Why would he leave her
But as the days went by the truth began to dawn
He wasn’t coming back he’d left her on her own
She blamed herself and wondered what had she done wrong
Why’d he deceive her

Chorus

And so the years went by and her life went on
She dried her tears and found a new love of her own
Her heart was big enough to hope that she had grown
But glad that chapter’s over
And as for him, he kept repeating what he’d done
Couldn’t trust his heart and turn his house into a home
He sits at night and wonders why he’s so alone
Now that he’s older

Chorus

2nd chorus (leaving ‘em all to wonder)
