I've been runnin' through the night   Tryin' to reach and hold you tight   I've been wonderin' just why you stayed away      But when I reached your home   I found out that you had gone   I found out someone had taken you away      Ever since the day I cared, all my dreams we've shared   And my love for you grown stronger every day   And now you've said goodbye, all I do is cry   I've been wonderin' just why you went away      Ever since the day I cared, all my dreams we've shared   And my love for you grown stronger every day   And now you've said goodbye, all I do is cry   I've been wonderin' just why you went away      Won't you come on back to my side?   Please, oh, please, don't hurt my pride   Tryin' to get along without you ain't so good      And if you play along, I will say that I was wrong   'Cause my love for you grows stronger like it should   'Cause my love for you grows stronger like it should
