Love, Why Did You Go Away?
Love, Why Did You Have To Go Away? :
Love, why did you have to go away, leave us here all alone
To survive these crazy, crazy days
And love, see we've been really missing you
Some new times have come round, it seems like we've forgot too

But we wanted you to know, we never wanted you to go
And we wanted you to know, we never wanted you to go

Love, why did you leave us here alone, when we drop bombs upon each other
Picked up guns and we shot our brothers, when dad got drunk and yelled at mother
Where were you, I said where were you

But we wanted you to know, we never wanted you to go
And we wanted you to know, that we never wanted you to go

And love, where were you when we were scared
When know one shared and know one cared
When we chopped down the final tree, broke apart the human family
So now I'm begging you today, I knew it was us who went away

But we wanted you to know, we never wanted you to go
And we wanted you to know, that we never wanted you to go
