I Don't Know Why

I don't know why

Why you had to leave me

And I don't know why

You said goodbye



Only if I try

Can I feel the earth beneath me

And as days go by

I come alive



The fall of your hair the feel of your skin and

The smile on your face as you took me in

Now I lie and stare at the sky, still I wonder why

I don't know why

You said that you'd release me

No matter how I try

I still feel you



I watched a falling leaf

Drifting down towards me

Carried by the wind

It disappeared



I sat in disbelief

At what had become of me

And as the day grew dark

I rose to go



As I walked along

I thought I heard you call me

Alas I was alone

So I went home



The fall of your hair the feel of your skin

The smile on your face as you took me in

Now I lie, no longer cry but still I wonder why

I don't know why

You were taken from me

I cannot forget or say goodbye
