Lyrics I Don't Know Why - Colin Hay

I Don't Know Why

I don’t know why
Why you had to leave me And i don’t know why
You said goodbye
Only if i try
Can i feel the earth beneath me And as days go by
I come alive
The fall of your hair
The feel of your skin
And the smile on your face
As you took me in Now i lie
And stare at the sky
Still i wonder why
I don’t know why
You said that you’d release me No matter how i try
I still feel you
I watched a falling leaf
Drifting down towards me Carried by the wind
It disappeared
I sat in disbelief
At what had become of me And as the day grew dark
I rose to go And as i walked along
I thought i heard you call me Alas i was alone
So i went home
The fall of your hair
The feel of your skin
And the smile on your face
As you took me in Now i lie
No longer cry
But still i wonder why
I don’t know why
You were taken from me I cannot forget
Or say goodbye
