Don't go away X11 You're leaving town in just a week But I can't speak, My words won't work, won't bring you back I stand in silence and help you pack I can smell the rain clouds in the sky And see the tears drops as they tumble down and stain your cheeks Out of time, and out of reach Just going abroad for a little while, she said with a smile Except the irony was lost on me I didn't wanna hear what she was saying to me So now I'll sing what I can't say, don't go away I need you more than I let on Don't know what I'd do if you were gone Just going abroad for a little while, she said with a smile Except the smile was sad and so was I I shut my eyes, I didn't wanna cry I guess the seeds that we had planted, I took for granted I didn't see how far we'd come Now it's too late and she is gone Refrain: Don't go away Nothing is alright I never told you this before, But I need you more than I would ever say to you I wrote this song just to play to you But I know this song means nothing now And I don't know how But I will get you back one day No matter what it takes and no matter what I gotta say Just going abroad for a little while, she said with a smile Except the irony was lost on me It's not alright why can't she see? Refrain: Don't go away Nothing is alright
