THE WORLD YOU LEFT BEHIND
Written by Alex Zanetis
(Recorded March 5, 1963)
I try to sleep to kill the pain,
When I wake it’s still the same.
'Cause I’m living in this world you left behind.
Just like a broken piece of glass,
You have swept me aside to pass
Leaving shattered dreams with a lonely heart and mind.
Well here I go again,
It’s just like yesterday.
The pain is deep within my heart to stay.
I’m just a fool to sit and cry
Wasting years before I die
In this lonely world, this world you left behind.
Well here I go again,
It’s just like yesterday.
The pain is deep within my heart to stay.
I’m just a fool to sit and cry
Wasting years before I die
In this lonely world, this world you left behind.
