The City - Why Are You Leaving lyrics

You told me that you had to go You said you could not stay here That being here just made you sad For sunshine, ships and easy land And you'd miss the pretty things you had So what am I to tell you? Whoa oh Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving? And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying? You said you were not born to win But I don't think you mean it That you think you'd better live alone And gather people one by one But when each new day is done Will you turn and face my window? Whoa oh Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving? And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying? As the day begins to fade Electric lamps, they trick you Into seeing faces on the wall Old memories that you recall And you're afraid you'll lose them all And the promises they made you Whoa oh Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving? And what's that secret sorrow that you're carrying? Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving? Why are you leaving?
