To think that I'm the kind of guy, whoever could have kept her, would be taking too much credit on myself
And seeing us together, you just knew that she'd look better with somebody else
Now she's gone, no one's surprised, least of all not me
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time, I gave her comfort in her time of need
You knew that we had plans for San Francisco in September, but I didn't see California in her eyes
And by the end of summer, someone made a better offer, you know I'm not surprised
Just a quick goodbye, nobody's crying, no, nobody's crying
I always knew that I was just a comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time, I gave her comfort in her time of need
Just a comfort, just a comfort in her time, I gave her comfort in her time of need
I gave her comfort
