[Verse]
He left like a shadow in the night
No goodbye no fight just faded light
I stood there waiting for his voice
But silence made the loudest noise
[Chorus]
Like a coward he ran away
Left me standing in the fray
Wanted to return but it's too late
His path was sealed by his own fate
[Verse 2]
I remember family ties so thin
But love doesn’t live where lies begin
Hard to let him stay with me
When truth hides where I can’t see
[Chorus]
Like a coward he ran away
Left me standing in the fray
Wanted to return but it's too late
His path was sealed by his own fate
[Bridge]
Was it love or just a game
A burning match or a steady flame
I’ll never know what he held inside
Cowards don’t speak they only hide
[Chorus]
Like a coward he ran away
Left me standing in the fray
Wanted to return but it's too late
His path was sealed by his own fate
