What You Were Lyrics - Cranberries

(on Dreams/Linger singles) 

Now it's easy for to see 

Why people's life are so lonely 

And you never understood 

You never really could, you were wrong 

What you were, what you were 

I couldn't say 

'Cause you left me here behind 

A stupid state of mind, and I'm lonely 

Yeah, you left me here behind 

A stupid state of mind, and you're gone 

Cos you left me here behind 

A stupid state of mind, and you're gone
