BEVERLEY KNIGHT LYRICS - A. W.O. L

"A. W.O. L."



I never see you anymore, you're absent without leave



In life I learned a lot of things

And what it brings to ya

And how it's good to be alone sometimes

I should have know you'd get an itch

And you would switch on me

And run away when day turns into night

'Cos you're a...

Good time sister

Always out for something better

Just when I need a friend you're...

Absent without leave

Good time brother

Called you friend when I knew better

Ain't got no time to spend you're...

Absent witout leave

So many people that I've found say they're down wit ya

Then like a ship they sail on with the breeze

See, in the sun they get a touch, but it's too much for 'em

They fall around you like the winter leaves



A little rain and they would run for cover

(I can stil remember)

When no-one else could see the need to shelter

(How can I forget?)

Knowing better times are round the corner

(Oh I can still remember)

So now when summer skies turn into grey, here's what I say...

Good time sister

Always out for something better

Just when I need a friend you're...

Absent without leave

Good time brother

Called you friend when I knew better

Ain't got no time to spend you're...

Absent witout leave



Good time sister

Always out for something better

Just when I need a friend you're...

Absent without leave

Good time brother

Called you friend when I knew better

Ain't got no time to spend you're...

Absent witout leave
