Leaving
Flett/Fletcher
Nothing is moving, all the world is still
No birds are singing and they never will
Cause you're leaving
No doors are open, the sun doesn't smile
There's no sign of laughter, it rains all the while
And I'm grieving
Cause you're leavin', leavin'
Food doesn't tempt me
No coffee or cakes, everything's empty
My heart's full of aches, nothing can please me
Why are you leaving?
Oh, no silver linings, no fluffy white clouds
I keep on walking, I'm lost in a crowd
Cause you're leaving
Nothing gives me pleasure, nothing gives me pain
I'm all over numb and I can't explain
Now you're leaving
Cause you're leavin', leavin'
So you put me down, you go your way around
I'm glad you're doing fine, I'll make out in time
Don't you worry, now you're leaving
