(Leo Sayer/D. Courtney)
|
Though he heard her clearly
|
She said it so sincerely
|
That's something that he doesn't understand
|
Her words were choked and broken
|
She left him with a token
|
The note he is holding in his hand
|
(Don't let me down, don't let me down)
|
Is this the end of the game
|
And will you put out the flame
|
And fly away
|
Don't fly away
|
Now let's find out who's too blame
|
And start all over again
|
Don't fly away
|
Don't fly away
|
Way across the city
|
Waiting on a taxi
|
Holding cases
|
Standing in the hall
|
Thinking "well if only"
|
She's feeling sad and lonely
|
Hoping 'gainst all hope that he will call
|
Don't let me down
|
Don't let me down
|
Is this the end of the game
|
And should I put out the flame
|
And fly away, and fly away
|
And if I walk out again
|
Is it true that the pain
|
Will fly away, fly away
|
Fly away
|
The taxi driver's talking
|
But she doesn't hear a single word he says
|
Fly away,
|
The tears fall so easily
|
Keep falling 'til she climbs aboard the plane
|
And it's the end of the game
|
With only fortune to blame
|
|
[Solo]
|
|
Yes, it's the end of the game
|
But love was given in vain
|
Sail away, sail away
|
Just like the sunshine and rain
|
It's true that one day will pain will fly away
|
Fly away, fly away
|
