The World has Turned and Left Me Here is the third track off Weezer's self-titled first album, commonly referred to as The Blue Album. The song was written by singer/guitarist Rivers Cuomo and drummer Patrick Wilson between December of '91 and January of '92 before Weezer was even started. This song and track 2, No One Else, are connected. Cuomo described the narrarator of No One Else as "the jealous-obsessive in me freaking out on my girlfriend" and claiming that "'The World has Turned and Left Me Here' is the same wondering why she’s gone."
