Laid our blessings on the ground, The softening of sound Draws us closed again Stay, stay and watch the coals Till they cease to glow Like empty promises Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? Baby? There's nothing I can say Nothing I can do To bring you back again This of life I know is true It's all a falling through And so I reach for you Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? Why, Why did you go, why did you go away? Don't you care That it may seem unfair? (You steal things you ought to borrow) Don't you find That it may seem unkind? (I'd rather breathe than drown in sorrow) Why, why did you go Why did you go away baby
