RAY LAMONTAGNE LYRICS - A Falling Through

"A Falling Through"



Laid our blessings on the ground,

The softening of sound

Draws us closed again



Stay, stay and watch the coals

Till they cease to glow

Like empty promises



Why, Why did you go, why did you go away?

Why, Why did you go, why did you go away?



Baby?



There's nothing I can say

Nothing I can do

To bring you back again



This of life I know is true

It's all a falling through

And so I reach for you



Why, Why did you go, why did you go away?

Why, Why did you go, why did you go away?



Don't you care

That it may seem unfair?

(You steal things you ought to borrow)

Don't you find

That it may seem unkind?

(I'd rather breathe than drown in sorrow)



Why, why did you go

Why did you go away baby
