Since You Went Away
Tony Carey
Some things we can't change
Some aren't in our hands
When were faced one day with fateful news
We do our best we can
And when your letter came
We knew what it would say
How else could they explain
How you simply wasted away
And red was the color I last saw you in
The thread that bound you to this world was so thin
And if you hear me now
Here's what I'll do today
I will pack your things up one by one
'Cause you won't need them since you went away
