Sandy Grey
Words and Music by Robin Frederick
Oh Sandy Grey
Are you going away?
Leave me a message before parting.
Time has changed you
And the things that pained you
Are the things you think of as you're starting.
Oh Sandy Grey
It's only this I pray
That you might stay here one more day in laughter.
Won't you hang around and hold me
Repeat all the lies you told me
Do your rambling after.
Oh, Sandy Grey
Whatever made you want to stay
And now what makes you want to be a-leaving
Is it the same thing they found
When they laid your father down
Or are your reasons even worth retrieving
Oh Sandy Grey
Don't leave me just today
Don't think on the road you'll be a-going
Think of all the time
And the days we've had to mind
Of the future there's no way of knowing.
Oh Sandy Grey
I thought I heard you say
You ain't heard one word that I've been speaking
There's no use in tryin'
You're escaping from my mind
And I'll never see the road you're seeking.
Oh Sandy Grey
Are you going away?
Leave me a message before parting
Time has changed you
And the things that pained you
Are the things you think of as you're starting.
