But life's got a funny way Of creeping up on me And pointing out the beauty In things I no longer see Wakes me from the dreams that I Have dreamed so carelessly Without you those dreams Mean nothing to me Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away Did I catch you sleeping, Elizabeth? Take your breath while you were dreaming, Elizabeth? My life's got a funny way Of creeping up on me And pointing out the beauty In things I no longer see Wakes me from the dreams that I Have dreamed so carelessly Without you my dreams Mean nothing to me Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away Just because I don't understand It doesn't mean it isn't so Just because I don't understand It doesn't make it less true, now, Elizabeth Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away Oh Elizabeth, all I have to know Is why you had to go away My Elizabeth My Elizabeth
