The Day You Went Away Lyrics - Roger Creager

Roger Creager 

A crowded restaurant and here you are 

I'm doing fine but you have come so far 

I ask how long it's been 

Like I don't know 

I've been counting the days since you've been gone 

You'd think my love would show 

But I hear you're doing great out on your own 

You're having a ball 

Have friends that call you on the telephone 

You've got hopes 

You've got dreams 

You've really got it made 

I used to feel the same until the day you went away 

I don't know why I thought you'd be around 

Looking back I see I really held you down 

Thinking that I'd always have it all 

I hate the way you're riding high 

Then all at once you take the fall 

Chorus 

Everyone is looking right at you 

When you walk in you really steal the show 

You're the one thing I should've held on to 

But standing today I'm trying like hell to let you go 

Chorus
