Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When I read your letter, I couldn't believe that you'd gone
I dialed your number, but no one answered the phone
I asked your friends to tell me, if they knew you where you were
They said they thought that you were ill
[Verse 2]
I hired a detective to try and find out where you are
He managed to trace you, he said you were living in France
A watchman saw you climb into someone else's car
And drive off laughing in the night
[Verse 3]
Why didn't you tell me?
Not leave me this way
Ooh, you could have told me
Not waited for so long
[Verse 4]
I tried to forget you, but I find myself walking the street
I went to the doctor and he gave me something to sleep
I sent you telegrams but you haven't answered one
You mother told me, I best leave you well alone
[Verse 5]
I hope you're satisfied
Now you've done this thing to me
I hope you're pleased with what you've done
[Verse 6]
Why didn't you tell me?
Not leave me this way
Ooh, you could have told me
Not waited for so long
[Verse 7]
(For so long) I never realized just exactly who you were
(For so long) I never realized the girl I had before
(For so long) I hope you're satisfied, you won't hear from me again
(For so long) I hope you're please with what you've done
[Verse 8]
Why didn't you tell me?
Not leave me this way
Ooh, you could have told me
Not waited for so long
