Why Do They Leave

Oh, why do they leave?
Oh, why do they leave?
On the day that you needed them, the most.
CHORUS:
Simple cards and things, rose coloured sunsets, no flowers for me
Simple cards and things, rose coloured sunsets, no flowers for me
Lover, why do you leave?
Lover, why do you leave?
On the day that I want you for me

VERSE:
Say, say it ain't so
That he will take you tomorrow
And I will sit here today, the worst
CHORUS:
Simple cards and things, rose coloured sunsets, no flowers for me
Simple cards and things, rose coloured sunsets, it's curtains for me
Lover, why do you leave?
Lover, why do you leave?
On the day that I want you to be, the world
