Alpine So Long Lyrics

When I read I couldn't believe that you'd gone
I dialed your number but no one answered the phone

I asked your friends to tell me if they knew where you where
They said they thought that you were ill

I had a detective to try and find out where you are
He managed to trace you, he said you were living in France

A watchman saw you climb into someone else's car
And drive off laughing in the night
Why didn't you tell me?
And not leave me this way?
Ooh, you could've told me
And not waited for so long

I've tried to forget you but I find myself walking the street
I went to the doctor and he gave me something to sleep

I've sent you telegrams but you haven't answered one Your mother told me I best leave you alone

I hope you're satisfied now you've done this thing to me
I hope you're please with what you've done

Why didn't you tell me?
And not leave me this way?
Ooh, you could've told me
And not waited for so long

For so long
I never realised just exactly who you were
For so long
I never realised the girl I had before
For so long
I hope you're satisfied, you won't hear from me again
For so long
I hope you're please with what you've done
Why didn't you tell me?
And not leave me this way?
Ooh, you could've told me
And not waited for so long
