Lyrics

A Falling Through

Laid our blessings on the ground

The softening of sound

Draws us close again

Stay, stay and watch the coals

Till they cease to glow

Like empty promises

[Ray Lamontagne & Leona Naess]

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away?

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away, babe?

There's nothing I can say

Nothing I can do

Bring you back again

This of life I know is true

It's all a falling through

And so I reach for you

[Ray Lamontagne & Leona Naess]

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away?

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away?

Don't you care

That it may seem unfair?

You steal things you ought to borrow

Don't you find

That it may seem unkind?

I'd rather breathe than drown in sorrow

[Ray Lamontagne & Leona Naess]

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away?

Why? Why did you go?

Why did you go away, babe?
