The One You Left Behind

from Goodbye Voyager by Subterraneans

/

lyrics

Its like the sun’s gone down forever
Its like the sky’s gone out for good
Please shine your light into my darkness
I know you’d do it if you could
And I’ve never been afraid
Of anybody
And you taught me
Not to ever tow the line
You gave me all the good
That you had in you
And I’m proud to be
The one you left behind

Its like my centre’s shifted sideways
Its like my soul’s been caught and tied
Yet still I feel you with me
Somehow you’re by my side
Always tell the truth
And always think of others
But be yourself
And never compromise
You gave me all the light
That you had in you
And I’m proud to be
The one you left behind

I didn’t know it was the last time
I didn’t know it was goodbye
I didn’t know that you were leaving
But I will keep your faith alive
If they’d hurt the ones you loved
You would have killed them
If they’d come for you
Then you’d have done the time
You gave me all the love
That you had in you
And I’m proud to be
The one you left behind
Yes I’m proud to be
The one you left behind
