Labi Siffre — Why Did You Go Why Did You Leave Me?

[Verse 1] I'm tired of waking in the morning on my own It's very hard for me just sleeping alone Sometimes in the night I wake and reach for you It's not good to live as one in a place for two [Chorus] Why did you go? Why did you leave me? How could I know, simple naive me I know that you care, well I know what you told me So why are you there making you lonely [Verse 2] Forget all the times we said we'd never part Well, that kind of talk it's always at the start But you still greet me with the same old smile And sometimes you'll let me love you for a while [Chorus] Why did you go? Why did you leave me? How could I know, simple naive me I know that you care, well I know what you told me So why are you there making you lonely [Verse 3] You tell me you need some time to work things out Well I don't want to rush you or mess you about But given time you know I might change too And I'd hate to see you suffer the way I do [Chorus] Why did you go? Why did you leave me? How could I know, simple naive me I know that you care, well I know what you told me So why are you there making you lonely
