The Day You Went Away

Roger Creager

6

A crowded restaurant and here you are

I'm doing fine but you

have come so far

I ask how long it's been

Like I don't know

I've been counting the days

since you've been gone

You'd think my love would show

But I hear you're doing great out on your own

You're having a ball

Have friends that call you on the telephone

You've got hopes

You've got dreams

You've really got it made

And I used to feel the same

Until the day you went away

I don't know why I thought you'd be around

Looking back I see

I really held you down

Thinking that I'd always have it all

I hate the way you're riding high

Then all at once you take the fall

Chorus

Everyone is looking right at you

You walk in you really steal the show

You're the one thing I should've held on to

Standing today I'm trying like hell to let you go

Chorus
