I Don't Know Why - Colin Hay

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 And 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

And 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
