What You Were Lyrics

[Intro]
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

[ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricenter.com/e118194-the_cranberries~what_you_were__lyrics.html ]
[Chorus]
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

[Hook]
Yeah, you left me here behind
A stupid state of mind, and you're gone
'Cause you left me here behind
A stupid state of mind, and you're gone

[Chorus]
What you were, what you were
I couldn't say
It took something hard like this
Mistaken to resist, and I'm lonely
