Without You

I wish that I could take that look you gave me

To the grave, and it would save me

But the memory is fading even now

Of you standing in the summer rain

And my life forever changed

Though I've called it back again, again, again

'Cause I don't want to leave this place without you

I don't want to leave you here alone

I don't want to leave this place without you

I don't want to leave this place alone

The sirens in my ears ring louder every year

And they call me to the beach when I'm alone

They will be with me when the crowds have gone away

So won't you stay?

'Cause I don't want to leave this place without you

I don't want to leave you here alone

I don't want to leave this place without you

But everybody leaves this place alone

Alone is how we came here and alone we cried

When they pried us from our lonely mothers hands

In the stolen lands when somehow we became friends

If there is one life, or a thousand more to see

Of joy and suffering

This one is but a dream

And I don't want to leave this place without you

I don't want to leave you here alone

I don't want to leave this place without you

But everybody leaves this place alone

Everybody leaves this place alone
