Lyrics

I never dreamed you'd leave in summer

I thought you'd go then come back home

I thought the cold would leave by summer

But my quiet nights will be spent alone

You said then you'd be warmed up in springtime

Oh, you said that is when you started to be cold

No, no

I never dreamed you'd leave in summer

But now I find myself all alone

You said then you'd be alive in autumn

Then you said you'd be the one to see the way

No, no, no, no, no

I never dreamed you'd leave in summer, oh

But now I find my love has gone away

Why didn't you stay?

I wanna know why didn't you stay

Ah babe

Why didn't you, why didn't you

Why, I think I should know why didn't you stay

I think I should know why, why

Why didn't you stay?
