Why Did You Go, Why Did You Leave Me? (2006 Reissue Bonus Track)

(álbum: Labi Siffre - 1970)

I'm tired of waking in the morning on my own
It's very hard for me just sleeping alone
Sometimes in the night I wake and reach for you
It's not good to live as one in a place for two

Why did you go? Why did you leave me?
How could I know, simple naive me
I know that you care, well I know what you told me
So why are you there making you lonely

Forget all the times we said we'd never part
Well, that kind of talk it's always at the start
But you still greet me with the same old smile
And sometimes you'll let me love you for a while

Why did you go? Why did you leave me?
How could I know, simple naive me
I know that you care, well I know what you told me
So why are you there making you lonely

You tell me you need some time to work things out
Well I don't want to rush you or mess you about
But given time you know I might change too
And I'd hate to see you suffer the way I do

Why did you go? Why did you leave me?
How could I know, simple naive me
I know that you care, well I know what you told me
So why are you there making you lonely
