So Long by Fischer-Z Lyrics

Genre: pop | Year: 1980

[Verse 1]
When I read your letter I coudn't believe that you'd gone
I dialled your number but no one answered the phone
I asked your friends to tell me if they knew where you were
They said they thought that you were ill

I hired a detective to try and find out where you are
He managed to trace you. He said, you're living in France
A watchman saw you climb into someone elses car
And drive off laughing in the night

[Chorus]
Why didn't you tell me? Not leave me this way!
You could have told me, not waited for so long

[Verse 2]
I've tried to forget you, but I find myself walking the street
I went to the doctor and he gave me something to sleep
I sent you telegrams, but you haven't aswered one
Your mother told me I best leave you well alone
I hope you're satisfied now you've done this thing to me
I hope you're pleased with what you've done
[Chorus]
Why didn't you tell me? Not leave me this way!
You could have told me, not waited for so long

[Bridge]
(For so long) I never realised just exactly who you are
(For so long) I never realised the girl I had before
(For so long) I hope you're satisfied; you won't hear from me again
(For so long) I hope you're pleased with what you've done

[Chorus]
Why didn't you tell me? Not leave me this way!
You should have told me, not waited for so long...
