Sitting in a dixon garden.
Wishing that you and i whern't parting
For the last time.
The last time.
And i said,
Why you wanna get married anyway?
That mans got a family.
And then you say,
Couldn't wait on you forever.
Well could i?
I guess not.

Theres an awkward silence for the first time.
In so many years,
As i recall you used to be mine.
And not some property of his.
And i sang.
Ah-La, don't go,
Ah-La, stay.
Ah-La, don't go,
Don't go away...

Maybe i should apologise.
For i treated you so.
And im so sorry that i left you here.
Just wish i could have known.
And you said,
Well you never cared to tell me.
And it's not your fault.
See these things just happen when your dealing with.
The hands on a clock,
Of a woman.

And he treats me fine.
And anyways im getting older,
And she said,
Oh, but i still miss you sometimes.
When the weathers getting colder.
And she sang.
Ah-La, don't go,
Ah-La, stay.
Ah-La, don't go,
Don't go away...

Do we say goodbye?
Or just see you later?
She said,
Don't make me cry.
Cause its enough just to know.
That i won't ever hold you close.
And i won't ever smell your skin.
And i know how im supposed to feel.
but can't we go again singing,
Ah-La, don't go,
Ah-La, stay.
Ah-La, don't go,
Don't go away...
Ah-La, don't go,
Ah-La, stay...
Ah-La, don't go,
Please don't go away.
Don't go away.
Don't go away.
And i said,
Don't go away.
And you said,
Don't go away.
And we sang,
Don't go away...
Yeah, Mmmmmmmmm.
