When you love has gone away
and you listen to the rain
that fall from inside your heart's
echoing somewhere far away.

When all you feel turns grey
and all you hear is rain
it's the sound of hearts breaking
because your love has gone away.

I've heard it said parting's a sweet sorrow
all the sweetness that I've known
has spread its wings and flown
my love has gone away.

Hold the emptiness at bay
try to shelter from the cold
when it seems the sky is crying
for your love has gone away.

When your love has gone away
and you listen to the rain
that falls from inside your heart
it echoes somewhere far away.

The birds have flown (The birds have flown)
winter closes in now (Winter)
when the wind cuts to the bone
it turns a heart to stone
my love has gone away.

I've heard it said partings a sweet sorrow
all the sweetness I have known
has spread its wings and flown
my love has gone away.
