About someone leaving.

55) If only you'd stayed:

Chorus:

Everything was ok until you went away.
Sometimes I look at those cross-roads.
I wonder how things would be now.
If only you'd stayed.
If only you'd stayed.

1)

One day I'm the one.
The next day with me you're done.
How can I go from being your all.
To become this nothing, this nothing at all.
You went away without saying a thing.
You left me with these words I sing.

Chorus:

Everything was ok until you went away.
Sometimes I look at those cross-roads.
I wonder how things would be now.
If only you'd stayed.
If only you'd stayed.

2)

Some time has passed us by.
Yet I still often wonder why.
Why you went away and left me so.
Did I do something wrong? I still don't know!
I truly miss the friendship that we had.
What might have been - that makes me feel sad.

Bridge:

You said you loved me - how could that be?
You went away when I wanted you to stay.
After all of this....
You're the one that I still miss.

Chorus:

Everything was ok until you went away.
Sometimes I look at those cross-roads.
I wonder how things would be now.
If only you'd stayed.
If only you'd stayed.
If only you'd stayed with me.
If only you'd stayed.
