The Day You Left - Poo Bear

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
