I dug a single seed into the ground
I hope it grows, grows
In a year or two, if you're around
You'll see a rose, rose
Pack me up and keep me hidden somewhere
That you can find me
On a train to Paris going nowhere
Draw the bridge behind me

Don't be gone too long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me, who's gonna love me when you're gone?

Golden leaves are dancing on the ground
It's getting cold, cold
Safe from time, we'll be forever young
Never old, old
See a ball of fire out in space, zooming up behind me
All the wonder written on your face
Was there inside me

Don't be gone too long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me, who's gonna love me when you're gone?

Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over?
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over?

Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over?
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over?

Don't be gone too long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me, who's gonna love me when you're gone?

Don't be gone too long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me, who's gonna love me when you're gone?
