my love and I
she turns to me
and though we were not far apart
we're closer then
she tells me
why not want what we can have?
why not ask what to say?
and she's gone, gone far away
it don't hurt me to know, it don't hurt her to say
say why not go, if we're leaving anyway?
I am staring out across the sky
and counting stars
she comes to me
and though we were not far apart
we're closer now
she asks me
why not want what we can't have?
why not know what to say?
and she's gone, in every way
and it hurts me to know, and it hurts her to stay
and she's here, in every way
it don't hurt me to know, it don't hurt her to say
say why not stay, if we're leaving anyway
anyway...
