When You Leave lyrics

When you leave

There's cordite in the air

A ringing in the stillness

Smoke drifting up the stair

When you leave

When you leave

My heart sounds in my ears

A beating in the darkness

A trace of you still here

When you leave

Like it or not

How could I not have fallen for you?

And now that I'm caught

How could I not be blue?

When you leave

I'll hear the smallest sound

And turn to look behind me

As though you're still around

When you leave

When you leave
