How was I supposed to know
She felt so much pain
How was I supposed to know
She never explained
How was I supposed to know

She grew up in a little hous
Always wore a smile with her faded pink blouse
After school we'd meet up
To talk about our latest crush
She seemed the same as yesterday
When anything was wrong she wouldn't say
So I just let it go
Because I didn't know

5am I get a call
A woman's voice, my friend had a "fall"
Or so the story goes
Nobody knows
That at night, she cries herself to sleep
She lost her dad last week
You can say it was a fall
That's not the case at all

When you don't say anything
How would I know your pain
Your would was a huricane
But you never thought to explain
So I'm left
With feelings of regret
I guess the news is now old
How the girl simply let go
