You leaving town in just a week, but I cant speaknMy words wont work won't bring you backnSo I stand in silence and help you pack nI can smell the rain clouds in the sky nAnd see the tears drops as they tumble down and stain your cheeks nOut of time and out of reachnnJust going abroad for a little while, she said with a smile nBut the irony was lost on cause I didn't wanna hear what she was saying to menSo now I'll sing what I can't say, don't go awaynI need you more than I let on don't know what I'd do if you were gonennJust going abroad for a little while, she said with a smilenBut her smile was sad and so was I so I shut my eyes cause I didn�t wanna cry nI guess the seeds that we had planted I plain took for granted nI didn't see how far we'd come now it's too late and she is gonennRefrain: nDon't go away nNothing is alright nnI never told you this before, but I need you morenThan I would ever say to you so I wrote this song I could play to you nI know this song means nothing now, and I don't know how nBut I'll get you back one day no matter what it takes no matter what I gotta saynnJust going abroad for a little while, she said with a smile nBut the irony was lost on me because its not alright why can't she seennRefrain:nDon't go away nNothing is alright
