daniel blake - where'd you go lyrics

[verse 1]
little house out in the country
empty bottle on the ground
tired man with a broken plan
tries to drink her memory down
she broke his heart and left him
in the night when he was going
now on a string wears her wedding ring
as he sings his grieving song

twenty years without a mention
that her love was wearing thin
he’s counting down all the memories
to the day lost love begins
and in his heart the fire now stirring
by the breath of a winded will
drops his knees down to the floor
as he prays she loves him still

[chorus]
where’d you go?
i’ve been working my life away to make this house a home
and as you know
we had bills to pay and the plans we made grew cold
and it was dark
so i searched for light and i found it in them smoky bars
so far away
from the dreams that we once held in our younger days
where’d you go?
[verse 2]
street corner in the city
sets her luggage on the ground
hair a mess in a leaving dress
as she flags a taxi down
she left her love behind her
in the night when he was going
with everything but a wedding ring
now she sings her goodbye song

twenty years without attention
and here hope was running out
fired by the lack of something
love can’t live without
and for too long she watched it fading
like the light thru that closing door
so in the night she walked away
from the man she held before

[chorus]
where’d you go?
i’ve been wasting my life away to make this house a home
but all alone
as you drank the night away and let our love grow cold
and it was hard
holding up them walls while you were in those smoky bars
so far away
from the man that i once held in my younger days
where’d you go?
[refrain]
so far away
so far away
why don’t you stay? why don’t you stay? why don’t you stay?
so far away from where you’ve gone

so far away
so far away
why won’t you stay? why won’t you stay? why won’t you stay?
so far away from where you’ve gone
