When You Go

(album: Freckles And Polliwog Days - 1974)

This cry inside is big enough to drown me
I know you've gone upstairs to pack your clothes
This love I have for you is all you're leaving here with me
Why don't you take it with you when you go

I hear your footsteps on the floor above me
And soon they'll just be echoes in my soul
All this love I have for you will just keep hurting me
Why don't you take it with you when you go

Would these memories be too much to carry
I know a heartache's such a heavy load
If there's room for broken dreams and tears I've yet to cry
Why don't you take them with you when you go

I'm standing at the end of our forever
The door of love is just about too close
I don't want tomorrow for it's nothing without you
Why don't you take it with you when you go
Why don't you take it with you when you go
