Away I Go (Chris Kemp)
- I can’t understand all the tunes they play,
But I understand what you’re trying to say.
Well I’m saying nothing that you don’t hear,
Just trying to help wash away your tears.
- Somebody’s saying “Well, bless my soul,
You better ride like the wind ‘cos the night wind’s cold”.
Wish I could stay but I must say no,
Bid you farewell and away I go.
Middle 1) You’re my everything, everything under the sun,
I’d do anything, just say the word and it’s done.
- I see your door and it’s open wide,
Something is beckoning me inside.
Should I pretend you’re an old, old friend?
‘Ts bound to catch up with us in the end.
I wish I could stay but I must say no,
Kiss you goodbye and away I go.
Middle 2) Oh my everything, you’re everything under the sun,
I’d do anything, (for you) just say the word and it’s done.
- Well I can’t understand all the tunes they play,
But I understand what you’re trying to say.
And I’m saying nothing that you don’t hear,
Just trying to help wash away your tears.
I wish I could stay but I must say no,
Whisper goodnight and away I go.
I’ll kiss you goodbye and away I go.
Bid you farewell and away I go.
