Why Did She Leave

Walking down snow covered streets Calling out your name My breath hangs in the frozen air Then disappears again People stop, stare Turn away Why did she leave Why didn't she stay? Standing in the silence of a winter night Listening for your voice Smelling your perfume, my eyes go moist I touch the snow, see the stars I turn away Why did she leave Why didn't she stay? I see you in the stars, I see you in the moon I see you when I close my eyes and hide in my room You're so long gone, you're so far away Why did you leave, why didn't you stay? The morning comes and I haven't slept The sun sparkles on the snow The coffee shops are busy, people with places to go And I ask each one, just to see what they'll say Why did she leave, why didn't she stay?
