Hey, does it ever make you wonder
what's on my mind
I, I was only ever running back to your side
I never cried, I just watched my life go by
It's just a pack of lies,
'cause you're leaving me behind
Why, after this long is there nothing
I'll keep, oh, I can shout
you'll pretend you're falling asleep
I live a lie, yeah, believing that you're mine
It's just a waste of time
'cause you're leaving me behind
Hey, there's not a cloud in the sky
It's as blue as your goodbye
and I thought it would rain
on a day like today
Hey, there's not a cloud in sight
it's as blue as your blue goodbye
and I thought that it would rain
the day you went away
Hey, does it ever make you wonder what's on my mind
I was only ever running back to your side
Hey, there's not a cloud in the sky
it's as blue as your goodbye
and I thought it would rain
on a day like today
Hey, there's not a cloud in sight
it's as blue as your blue goodbye
and I thought that it would rain
the day you went away
He's on the buses, and the aeroplanes
with some groceries and a sleeping bag....
This poignant song is about loss. After over 50 years of love and friendship my beautiful wife suddenly passed away. We were young, passionate and shared our lives. At the end I held her hand and hugged her for minutes. And then I was alone. I wept. I buy my own groceries, and I don't have a sleeping bag.
This song means a lot.
