lyrics

THAT’S HOW IT GOES WHEN YOU GO AWAY

I RODE OUT FOR SUPPLIES THE FIRST AFTERNOON
THAT WAS FIVE WEEKS AGO I’VE STILL PLENTY OF FOOD
I WOKE IN THE NIGHT HAVING SLEPT THROUGH THE DAY
THAT’S HOW IT GOES WHEN YOU GO AWAY

YOUR FRIENDS CAME BY TO ASK WHERE YOU WENT
I WAS UNDER THE TABLE UNTIL THEY LEFT
MOST OF THE TIME I HAVE LESS TO SAY / A LOT OF THE TIME I HAVE LITTLE TO SAY
THAT’S HOW IT GOES WHEN YOU GO AWAY

YOUR CLOTHES ON THE FLOOR WHERE YOU LAST LET THEM FALL
I LAY DOWN THERE WHERE IT’S COMFORTABLE
I HAVE A REGULAR HEARTBEAT BUT LATELY IT’S STRANGE
THAT’S HOW IT GOES WHEN YOU GO AWAY

THERE ARE NOISES IN THE COTTAGE A LIGHT IN THE LOFT
I TURNED IT ON YESTERDAY WHEN I WOKE UP IT’S OFF
I START TO THINK I AM NOT ALONE IN THIS PLACE
THAT’S HOW IT GOES WHEN YOU GO AWAY
