No One

You smoke too much
Sometimes you hardly eat
It takes ages to get to sleep

Can't get up
You feel defeat
No one watches over you or me

No one
To do or not do for
No one
So nothing is what I do

Only now I realize, baby
What I did to you
What I did to you

Out on the town
Willing and able
Thinking I'm the one so cool and tough

Found your note
On the kitchen table
Saying you finally had enough
You had enough

No one
To do or not do for
No one
So nothing is what I do

Only now I realize, baby
What did I do
How could I do because of you

What was I doing all this time?
Taking it for granted
Thinking everything was fine
I should have been there
To hold your body close to mine

The house is cold, cold, cold
The bed is too
Though there's a woman in it

And every now and then
In the dim light
She looked a little bit like you
Though that's not right
Looks a little bit like you
But in her arms I wish you were there instead

No one
To do or not do for
No one
So nothing is what I do
Nothing is what I do

Only now I realize, baby
What I did
I did just for you, you, you, you

What I was doing all this time
Taking it for granted
Thinking everything was fine
Fine, fine, fine, fine

I should have been there
To capture your eyes in mine
Oh, I should've been there
I should've been there for you
Should've been there for you this time

Oh, no one, no one, no one
No one, no one, no one, no one
[Incomprehensible]
The cupboard is empty, the refrigerator is bad

And I don't have nobody else, nobody else
The picture I'm looking at on, my own
The computer won't leave me alone
You don't even text me, you don't even try to reach me

No one, no one, no one, no one
I should've been there for you
To do the things you need me to do
I just should've been there
I should've been there
