Country Lament #48303
Whyyyy
couldn't it be you
that left me?
Whyyyy
did I
have to be the one
to leave you?
Hoped
we grow apart
without much
trouble
or maybe
fall
in love
with someone new.
When we first met
all time stretched out
before us.
When we first met
we couldn’t wait
to do the do.
When we first met
we couldn’t sleep
without affections.
When we first met
we never thought
that we’d be through.
Oh, whyyyy
couldn't it be you
that left me?
Whyyyy
did I
have to be the one
to leave you?
Hoped
we grow apart
without much
trouble
or maybe
fall
in love
with someone new.
The years went on
and we lost
what was behind us.
The years went on
and we dealt
with the day by day.
The years went on
and we wondered
what did done happened.
The years went on
and it was clear
we had to go our ways.
But whyyyy
couldn't it be you
that left me?
Whyyyy
did I
have to be the one
to leave you?
Hoped
we grow apart
without much
trouble
or maybe
fall
in love
with someone new.
Did I never tell you
you were everything
I ever wanted?
Did I never tell you
how I loved
the way you moved?
Did I never tell you
how it meant
to have you near me?
Did I never tell you
all the little things
I never told you?
My darling,
whyyyy
couldn't it be you
that left me?
Whyyyy
did I
have to be the one
to leave you?
Hoped
we grow apart
without much
trouble
or maybe
fall
in love
with someone new.
