[Verse 1]
Nothing is moving, all the world's still
No birds are singing and they never will
’Cos you're leaving
No doors are open, the sun doesn't smile
No sound of laughter, it rains all the while
I’m grieving...
[Refrain]
'Cos you're leaving, even food doesn't tempt me
No coffee no cakes, everything's empty
My heart's full of aches, nothing can please me
Why are you leaving?
[Verse 2]
No silver lining, no fluffy white clouds
I keep on walking, lost in the crowd
Disbelieving
Nothing gives me pleasure, nothing gives me pain
I'm all over numb and I can't explain
Now you’re leaving
[Refrain]
Yes you’re leaving, even food doesn't tempt me
No coffee no cakes, everything’s empty
My heart's full of aches, nothing can please me
Why are you leaving?
[Verse 3]
So you put me down, yes you know your way around
Glad you're doing fine, I'll make out in time
Don’t you worry now...
[Refrain]
You're leaving, even food doesn't tempt me
No coffee no cakes, everything's empty
My heart's full of aches, nothing can please me
Why are you leaving?
