Of All The Things To Throw Away

Colin James


Another day passes and you don't call
Getting to know every crack in the wall
If there's a good reason for this
It's a secret you're keeping
Can't make a move and don't know why
As if I don't have a reason to try
But the sun keeps coming around
Without me sleeping

You're going away now baby
With nothing to say
So nothing makes sense to me lately
Of all the things to throw away

It's like cleaning up the streets
After the fireworks
All of this beauty
Turned to dust and to dirt
No relief from the light of dawn
When it takes over

I'm hoping you feel something missing
That you had yesterday
I'm wondering what you were thinking
Of all the things to throw away
Of all the things to throw away

You're gone away from me
All I've got to say
I'm hoping you come to your sense
Of all the things to throw away
