Lyrics
You couldn't Stay
You went away
You wandered around
Nowhere to be found at all.
How can I stay
Maybe I'll go away
yet someone I know
said I shouldnt go away.
Holding a thread
that goes nowhere
I pull and unravel
I can't pretend I don't care.
You couldn't stay
Farewell I say
Someone that I know
Said I shouldn't go away.
