One by one just like jewels

Why Didn't You Tell Me?

Why didn’t you tell me
What’s on your mind
Instead of leaving this way
Why didn’t you tell me
What was on your mind
Instead of leaving, leaving this way

Late at night I stand alone and watch the stars
And watch them fade away
One by one they're turnin' black babe
I can't get that pain to leave

Why didn’t you tell me
What was on your mind
Instead of leaving, leaving this way
Did you think I would lose my mind

You know I love you
Like the fish love the sea
You know baby that I love you
Like a nun loves misery

Why didn’t you tell me
What was on your mind
Instead of leaving, leaving me this way
Why didn’t you tell me
What was on your mind
Instead of leaving, leaving leaving leaving me this way
I stood alone late at night
Watchin' the stars fall down
One by one just like jewels baby
Falling from Jesus' crown

Why didn’t you tell me
What was on your mind
Instead instead of leaving, leaving me this way
Why Why Why Why Why
