Lyrics
Always There
Verse
The first I knew you're leaving
Was when you closed the door
With a silent shrug and wave of your hand
Did you not even stop to think
Of letting me know
Or was a quick departure always what you'd planned
No note on the table
No message on the phone
Not a hint of why you had to leave
I used to keep my emotions
Locked away inside
But now I wear my heart back on my sleeve
Chorus
I still can't seem to get
My head around the fact
You left without the merest by your leave
And all that's left of you
Are the things you left unpacked
No closure yet to help me start to grieve
Verse
You always said you could rely
On me being there for you
I thought that would apply both ways
But since stark reality
Came hoving into view
I wander round and round inside a haze
Now all that's left for me
Is to get on with my life
Though I still don't know exactly why you're gone
So could you find the time
To explain the rights and wrongs
Then I might finally move on
Chorus
I still can't seem to get
My head around the fact
You left without the merest by your leave
And all that's left of you
Are the things you left unpacked
No closure yet to help me start to grieve
Verse
No note on the table
No message on the phone
Not a hint of why you had to leave
I used to keep my emotions
Locked away inside
But now I wear my heart back on my sleeve
