Birds up in the sky, you know what I mean
Breeze on which they fly, you know what I mean
Sunlight through the trees, you know what I mean
She went away
River running free, you know what I mean
Roll out to the sea, you know what I mean
This desert's lonely tree, you know what I mean
She went away
Now I'm free to roam this great big land I know
Since you went away, the colors seem to fade
But I know it's not the light
Seas of golden grain, you know what I mean
The thunder in the rain, you know what I mean
How can all this pain come from one ordeal?
She went away
