I Don't Need You Anymore

Colin Hay


I don't need you anymore
I don't need you anymore now 
When you leave please close the door 
I can't stand it any more 
Now you're gone 
On and on, I'll carry on 

Are you here to give me pain? 
Behind your eyes you're still the same now 
Please don't smile and play those games 
And don't pretend that you have changed 

Now be gone 
On and on, I'll carry on 

When first I knew you'd gone 
The wind grew colder 
But after the pain had gone 
I felt much older 
You had my very soul and my completeness 
And now I find you here 
You leave me speechless 

I don't need you any more 
No you can't sleep on the floor now 
You'd stay a while and then you'd go 
And I can't love you any more 

Now please be gone 
On and on, I'll carry on
