Why did you go away?

Why did you go away why couldn’t you have stayed
What made you go away to be with him
You were the only one so why are you on the run
How could you steal away; steal all my life away
My God what have I done?..

You were the one for me but you, you could never see
That I I could have been to you
What you, what you were to me

Who does he think he is; What does he take me for
I loved you faithfully - does he?
He has so many friends and you are just one of them
So why does he make you feel more for someone who is so poor
In all but money...

You were…

The days and nights are never-ending; the emptiness inside is ever-growing
And I know you’ll never come back; all I feel is the burning lack
That was you

You were…
