where have all my friends gone
they've all disappeared
turned around maybe one day
you're all that was there
stood by on believing
stood by on my own
always thought I was someone
turned out I was wrong

and you brought me through
and you made me feel so blue
why don't you stay behind
so blue
why don't you stop
and look at what's going down

if I had an old woman
she'd never sell me a lie
it's hard to sing with someone
who won't sing with you
give all of my mercy
give all of my heart
never thought that I'd miss you
that I'd miss you so much

and you brought me through
and you made me feel so blue
why don't you stay behind
so blue
why don't you stop
and look at what's going down

all my life (staying while)
I'm waiting for (staying while)
someone I could (waiting around)
show the door (now that I'm blue)
but nothing seems to change
(that I'm blue from now on)
you come back that month

so blue
why don't you stay behind
so blue
why don't you
why don't you stay behind
so blue
why don't you
why dont' you stay behind
so blue
why don't you stop
and look at what's down
