Why must one always leave

Carl Cleves

Why must one always leave
While the other stays behind?
Why do I always think
That I’m one of a kind?

Zip up my suitcase
The taxi is at the door
I said what I had to say
I couldn’t say more

I leave like a thief
Our love affair was only brief
You always wore that ring
Like a fling of thing

I fell down from the heavens above
Stripped more than the polish of my shoes
But grief always comes from the one you love
Leaves me with these broken-hearted blues

Why must one always leave
While the other stays behind?
Why do I always think
That I’m one of a kind?

Did nobody tell you
That there was a price to pay?
Did you think it would be like this,
Or some other way?

All the lies you told me
Have been driving me insane
Trust comes walking
Leaves by plane

Why must one always leave
The other behind
You got me spinning baby
I’m going out of my mind
You got me spinning baby
I’m going out of my mind

Why must one always leave
The other behind
