The Prodigals
Leaving
That cold autumn day when I went away To Shannon and onto the US of A I'll never forget the look in your eyes When I hugged you and kissed you and told you goodbye When I looked at you knowing that I had to go It's a pain that I prayed that you never would know But you were too young still to understand why Someone who loved you could bid you goodbye. Chorus: Wherever I wander, wherever I stray It's a piece of me now that forever will stay It's part of me heart that is locked away And stays with you forever. It seemed for a moment the moment stood still If hold it I could by the force of my will But I turned and I left then and all I could see Was the sight of you there and you looking at me What once was a household was long torn apart Now like the ocean's the rift in my heart And I long for the day when with all of its charms We'll be back together with you in my arms.
