Stephanie Hatfield - Away Gently Lyrics

He went away gently. You went away loud
Boasting of new love to hide all your proud
You climbed up a mountain to see farther out
Not seeing inside him was what filled you with doubt
You said, "Don't go away mad"
Would he release you from the sadness
He left just the way that you said
Now you're the one lamenting what you had
And lost
And lost
In dreams you'll consume him as if he's still there
Staking a claim in what never compares
In duties of daylight you'll think he's long gone
In a life lived before you by another someone
You said, "Don't go away mad"
Would he release you from the sadness
He left just the way that you said
Now you're the one lamenting what you had
And lost
And lost
It was never the days that filled you like lead
Rather the nights when you wished you still fed
On a mouth made of promise and skin of sweet salt
Why you still want him was never his fault
You said, "Don't go away mad"
Would he release you from the sadness
He left just the way that you said
Now you're the one lamenting what you had
And lost
And lost
