Remember the day you told me you were leaving?nFar away on a long, long tripnThe water at the seaside was windless and evennGravity seemed to loosen its gripnAnd if you look across the beaches at the lightnThe sun is hiding underneath the red horizon linenMaking outlines from the treesnBlinding you and menBlanking out the worldnI can't see anything behind your eyesnnI can feel you shaking as you touch menTaste the sweat dripping on your lipsnA warm summer wind is blowing all around usnI never thought it might end like thisnAnd as we stand on the sidewalk looking downnI could swear I see your shadow disappearing from the groundnLeaving me alonenWith nowhere else to gonStanding in a strange placenAfraid to take a look aroundnnI know you told me when you leftnI wouldn't have a single thing to fearnBut I wonder if you'll still remember menWhen you're high up in the atmospherenAnd will the thin air up therenStill carry my voice to you?nLike a bottled message on the radio wavesnWill it ever get to you?nnI know you told me when you leftnI wouldn't have a single thing to fearnBut I wonder if you'll still remember menWhen you're high up in the atmospherenAnd will the thin air up therenStill carry my voice to you?nLike a bottled message on the radio wavesnWill it ever get to you?nnYou know you're gonna find me waiting here for younEveryday 'til you come backnMaybe it would take a miracle but you knownI've always believed in thatnAnd if you look down at me from the skynI'll be standing alone, waving goodbyenBlowing kisses at the sunnIgnoring everyonenI never even stopped to ask you whynWhy?nWhy?
