"I wanted you to go, but then I wished you'd stay
I only spoke the first, and watched you walk away
'Cause left unsaid, my wish, your steps did not refrain
Why did you have to go? Well...why would you remain?"

In the country where I was born, Alecsandri (a poet) once wrote: "Vroiam sa pleci, vroiam si sa ramai/ Ai ascultat de gandul cel dintai/ Nu te-a oprit acela fara glas/ De ce-ai plecat? De ce-ai mai fi ramas..." (lg. romanian)
That means, in a rough translation:
"I wanted you to go, but then I wished you'd stay
I only spoke the first, and watched you walk away
'Cause left unsaid, my wish, your steps did not refrain
Why did you have to go? Well...why would you remain?"
Lyrics
There's nothing in the world as full of pain
As watching you go
There's nothing I can do to stop the rain
Watching you go
There's noone in the world to take the blame
For letting you go
And I wish you could hear me cry your name...
Watching you go
Watching you go
You dissapear at the end of the road
Hoping you'd stop
Praying for something to make you turn back
I told you to leave
I saw tears in your eyes and I couldn't believe
As you walked away
My heart was crying wishing you'd stay
There's nothing in the world as full of pain
As watching you go
There's nothing I can do to stop the rain
Watching you go
There's noone in the world to take the blame
For letting you go
And I wish you could hear me cry your name...
Watching you go
Watching you go
Merely a shadow you're one with the road
Out in the rain
Shaking and crying I'm going insane
Holding my head
I didn't mean all those things that I said
I'm sorry I'm sorry I just didn't know
The pain I would feel...watchin' you go
There's nothing in the world as full of pain as..
Nothing I can to stop the rain
There's noon in the world to take the blame for..
And I wish you could hear me cry your name
Watching you go
Watching you go
You dissapear at the end of the road
Hoping you'd stop
Praying for something to make you turn back
Holding my head
I didn't mean all those things that I said
I'm sorry I'm sorry I just didn't know
The pain I would feel...watchin' you go
Watchin you go
There's nothing I can do to stop the rain
There's noone in the world to take the blame for letting you go
And I wish you could hear me cry your name...
