Why Did You Have To Leave Me

Why did you have to leave me?
She beats upon his chest.
Why did you have to leave me?
She beats upon his chest.

I did not want to leave you.
I did not want to hurt you
but I was too unhappy
to stay.

Why did he have to leave us.
The words are in a book.
Why did he have to leave us.
The words are in a book.

And so its ash to ashes.
And so its ash to ashes.
And so its ash to ashes
again.
