After 7 - How Could You Leave Lyrics
I guess I figured out
That something was wrong
And that things have changed
Cause girl I sit by the phone
And I wait for your call
But the phone never rings
So I picked up the phone and
called you at home
You're on the other line,
I wanna talk to you maybe
Even see you, you say you have no time
You started doing things that
You never did before, how could
Something so right turn out to be
Something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
We use to take long walks
And have long, long talks
On the telephone
You use to hold my hand in the
Shopping mall, I felt I was your own,
We stopped going out as much
I started feeling all alone
Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
Saying that you cared
But I still carried on
I thought we could work things out
But I just don't understand why
How could you leave someone patient
Like me for something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
Even though you, broke my heart in two
I was just hanging on, trying to do what
Was right and you were already gone
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
When love came you went away
And if I see you again
Girl I would ask you how could you
Leave this good thing
That something was wrong
And that things have changed
Cause girl I sit by the phone
And I wait for your call
But the phone never rings
So I picked up the phone and
called you at home
You're on the other line,
I wanna talk to you maybe
Even see you, you say you have no time
You started doing things that
You never did before, how could
Something so right turn out to be
Something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
We use to take long walks
And have long, long talks
On the telephone
You use to hold my hand in the
Shopping mall, I felt I was your own,
We stopped going out as much
I started feeling all alone
Girl you stopped telling me you loved me
Saying that you cared
But I still carried on
I thought we could work things out
But I just don't understand why
How could you leave someone patient
Like me for something so wrong
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
Even though you, broke my heart in two
I was just hanging on, trying to do what
Was right and you were already gone
You thought the grass was greener
You thought the well had water
You thought that you could find a
Love another place
So how could you leave this good thing
When love came you went away
And if I see you again
Girl I would ask you how could you
Leave this good thing

New song by After 7!
When my varsity girlfriend left me in 2015 I played this song everyday thinking about how she just walked out on me after all i have been through for her. I ran all different thoughts until 6 July 2016. Time really heals. You might not get the answers to questions you seek, but if you trust time and let go of what you can't change you will find yourself in a place way better than you thought.
Still listening in 2018
Bring this music back !
Ohhhhh yeeeeee
these guys killed this song
Melvin wow...whoaaa. Yes.
Love it
This song literally reaches down into my inner soul. Kevon lovely
more than word to explain, I love R&B songs and I love After7,
I was just hanging on trying to do what was right and you were already gone....WOW!!!!
Wow never heard of this! ---> Thanks!
Show these youngsters how R&B is really sung. Smooth, heart-felt, and expressive.
Yeah man not a screaming contest. Jesus fuck. These days its who can scream the loudest and they call it singing.

@t00gd4u
thats true what ur saying
i agree with u 1oo%
I love this song by After 7 so underrated.
man this is one helluva slow jam here. takes me to when people really felt love for their mate
dam this shit is old. This album came out back when i was in high school, when i use to sing and be smooth, to get girls. dam makes me feel like i listen to rap too much
If you support those artist buying their stuff, the record execs. will continue to give us bullshit. If you watch the videos BET gives you, then you support that bullshit. Sorry but we cant support this current crop of idiots and hacks and expect for good music to just happen. Sorry but cant have your TI's T.Pains, Lil Wayne,and have Luther's, Whitney's,After 7's just dosent work that way.
