I wait ed till I saw the sun.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
I left you by the house of fun.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
When I saw the break of day,
I wished that I could fly a way
’stead of kneel ing in the sand
catch ing tear drops in my hand.
My heart is
drenched in
wine,
but you’ll be
on my
mind
for
ev
er.
Out a cross the end less sea,
I would die in ec sta sy.
But I’ll be a bag of bones
driv ing down
the road a lone.
My heart is
drenched in
wine,
but you’ll be
on my
mind
for
ev er.
Some thing has to make you run.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
I feel as emp ty as a drum.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
I don’t know why I did n’t come.
I
don’t know why I did n’t come.
