You Went Away - Rare Bird

You went away and left me one dark day

When we were much too close

Dreaming of our private peace

You went away and I was breathing again

The air was purer now

It felt so good somehow to be alone

But if I’d known

I must have caused you pain

Our love was on the way

I want you back again

And I need you, need you, need you, need you

Need you, need you, need you, need you

You went away and left me standing there

And I could breathe again

Live again without a care

But your pain was reaching me

And again was teaching me

That I’d heard you deeply many times

So many many times without a thought

I must have caused you pain

Our love was on the way

I want you back again

And I need you, need you, need you, need you

Need you, need you, need you, need you
