Footprints

Zebra’s dont change stripes.

I don’t know what I expected you to do.

It wouldn’t be me to ever look at things twice,

Maybe from a different view,

Maybe I could’ve looked away from you.

 

You may have left your shoes by the door,

But you still left foot prints on my floor,

Left your foot prints on me, oh.

You may left your markers in your car,

But you still marked up all of my walls,

Left your mark on me, oh.

When you left.

When you left.

 

I stood still, watched world just turning around,

Traced your footprints til they reached the clouds,

I’m sorry I wasn’t what you need,

I’m sorry if that made you leave.

 

Now I found someone who thinks like me,

Please be happy, please be happy,

You took whatever you needed.

Even if they leave, I might end up clean,

You were the only one ever messy enough to leave marks on me.

 

You may have left your shoes by the door,

But you still left foot prints on my floor,

Left your foot prints on me, oh.

You may left your markers in your car,

But you still marked up all of my walls,

Left your mark on me, oh.

When you left.

When you left.
