So Long Songtext
When I read your letter I couldn't believe that you'd gone

I dialed your number but no one answered the phone

I asked your friends to tell me if they knew where you were

They said they thought that you were ill


I hired a detective to try and find out where you are

He managed to trace you, he said you were living in France

A watchman saw you climb into someone else's car

And drive off laughing in the night



Why didn't you tell me

Not leave me this way

Oooh, you could have told me

Not waited for so long


I tried to forget you but I find myself walking the street

I went to the doctor and he gave me something to sleep

I've sent you telegrams but you haven't answered one

Your mother told me I best leave you well alone

I hope you're satisfied, now you've done this thing to me

I hope you're pleased with what you've done



Why didn't you tell me

Not leave me this way

Oooh, you could have told me

Not waited for so long



For so long, I never realized just exactly who you were

for so long, I never realized the girl I had before

for so long, I hope you're satisfied, you won't hear from me again

for so long, I hope you're pleased with what you´d done



Why didn't you tell me

Not leave me this way

Oooh, you should have told me

Not waited for so long
