lyrics

when you came in
I think you saw
I think you recognized
what was waiting for you there

when you came in
you felt the presence
of everyone else
but not yourself
but not yourself at all

where'd you go
for so, so long
where'd you go
where'd you go
for so, so long
won't you tell us, please?

please let us know
if you plan to go
I want to be here
when you step out the door

please let us know
next time you go
I'll be waiting
at the door, darling

remember the time
we all waved goodbye
remember the time
you called up and said
"oh, oh, oh, oh..."
oh, the things that you say
"oh, oh, oh, oh"
I don't really care, anyway

if you happen
to come across
a letter I wrote one day
won't you tell me
the things
I forgot to say
won't you tell me
the things I just couldn't say

if you happen
to come across
anything that belonged to me
won't you just throw it away
come on, just throw it away
you don't need any of that, anyway
hmm, just throw it away, yes
throw it away, away, yeah
throw it away, yeah
mmmhmmmmm
