Wake, reaching for yesterday Up, washing the sleep away My mind, full of the games you play all the time
I, roll up a cigarette Sit down, trying hard to forget Your face, when you turned and left me again
It's not a game Seeing your face on the wall, when it's only in a frame It's not the same Sleeping without you at night, not knowing if I will again
Magic mirror shines Memories of yesterday You wouldn't go and you couldn't stay Deceitfully blind To you wanting your way Where will you go, where will you stay Where will you stay You wouldn't say You wouldn't say
You've gone away Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad You'll realise your heartaches today I see your eyes Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears You know you always used to cry I'll wait for tomorrow Yes, I'll wait for tomorrow Haven't I told you Just want to hold you You know that yesterday You took my smallest part so carelessly away Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep Your golden head The empty bed The empty bed... and now there is another day But where are you What can I do?
You once said Ours is terrestrial love Such a feeling left along with your case
It's such a fight 'Cause every window I pass Keeps reflecting visions of your face
Like a Spider's web Weaving me round and round again Will it let go, can I clear my head
There's a thousand things Not only the empty bed Why did you go? was it something I said? Let me clear my head Was I misled? I wish I was dead
You've gone away Can't help feeling sad but then I'm glad You'll realise your heartaches today I see your eyes Yes the eyes that used to shine with secret tears You know you always used to cry I'll wait for tomorrow Yes, I'll wait for tomorrow Haven't I told you Just want to hold you You know that yesterday You took my smallest part so carelessly away Have all your memories gone suddenly to sleep Your golden head The empty bed The empty bed... and now that you have gone away Where are you What can I do?
My cigarette's gone out It's late, no one's about Guess I'll try Put you right out of my mind
