[Verse 1] (Sing in the same melody as the previous version) Underneath the stars we saw that night You made a promise, held me tight Hand in hand, we’d walk through time Just the two of us, yours and mine But the seasons turned to gray And the wind blew you away Now your shadow fades from view In a world without the touch of you [Chorus] Why did you leave me alone? I cast this hollow, silent plea Into the dark of the galaxy Why did you leave me alone? The ghost of your smile is all I see It’s still burning inside of me [Verse 2] (Sing in the same melody as the previous version) In the photo on the wall You’re still smiling through it all Only memories remain To haunt me with this bitter pain Though I call your number still Silence is the only thrill But I feel your voice is near Whispering into my ear [Chorus] Why did you leave me alone? I cast this hollow, silent plea Into the dark of the galaxy Why did you leave me alone? The promise we made that yesterday Did it simply just drift away? [Verse 3] (Sing in the same melody as the previous version) Passing strangers on the street Searching every face I meet For the scent of your cigarette A fragrance I can’t quite forget Tried to love somebody new But my heart leads back to you Still your scent is haunting my soul And I’m losing all my control [Final Chorus] Why did you leave me alone? I cast this hollow, silent plea Into the dark of the galaxy Why did you leave me alone? The ghost of your smile is all I see It’s still burning inside of me
