The Day You Left
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
When was it that you had left
As I sat on the porch sad and bereft
Was it when you walked out the door
Or was it so many years before?
Did you think I'd never notice
All the looks you gave to your accomplice
Behind the scenes and in the shadows
Out in the barn and in the meadows?
The day you left
I've been full of sorrow mixed with happiness
The day you left
Surprisingly, I've been content with loneliness
Straw in your hair gave you away
But I kept all your secrets to this day o-ohh
Hoping it would just be a fling
And back into my arms you'd spring
I wish and pray that you'd remember
The love we shared so true and tender o-oh
Maybe soon enough you'd get bored oh
With this passing fancy I abhorred
The day you left
I've been full of sorrow mixed with happiness
The day you left
Surprisingly, I've been content with loneliness
A day, a month, another year oh-h
I woulda waited for you my dear
With my mouth shut and teeth clenched o-oh
Despite it all to the bitter end oooo
But your happiness is all I care for
Today, tomorrow, and forever more hey-y
And as you walk off and leave me behind
I'll be waiting still if you change your mind
Yeah
Ooo
The day you left
Oooo the day you left
Oooo-ohhhhhh
