Why Did You Leave Me Today - Gene Clark & Carla Olson, Gene Clark, Carla Olson

For so long we worked so hard

We didn’t have a dime

But we had one anothers love

And that was all the time.

Then one day our ship came in The answer to our dreams

A mansion filled with social life

And gold and limousines.

Why did you leave me today

I was going to give you the world

I watched my dream slip away

All I can say why did you leave today.

As I walked through these grand old halls

I feel so cold inside

I stare upon these grand old walls

And all the costly prizes

I realize I gladly trade them, these worldly things

To lie beside you one more time

And share only our dreams.

Why did you leave me today

I was going to give you the world

I watched my dream slip away

All I can say why did you leave today.
