Everytime You Go Away Lyrics
Hey, if we can solve any problem
Then why do we lose so many tears?
Oh, so you go again
When the leading man appears
Always the same thing
But can't you see
We've got everything going on and on and on
[Chorus]
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Go on and go free
Maybe you're too close to see
I can feel your body move
But does it mean that much to me
I can't go on singing the same thing
Cause can't you see we've got everything
Baby, even though you know
[Chorus]
I can't go on singing the same thing
Cause baby can't you see we've got everything going on and on and on
[Chorus]
Don't think that I don't care
I'll be nearly everywhere
Don't leave me all alone
Pickin up the pieces, pickin up the pieces
Then why do we lose so many tears?
Oh, so you go again
When the leading man appears
Always the same thing
But can't you see
We've got everything going on and on and on
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Everytime you go away
You take a piece of me with you
Maybe you're too close to see
I can feel your body move
But does it mean that much to me
I can't go on singing the same thing
Cause can't you see we've got everything
Baby, even though you know
Cause baby can't you see we've got everything going on and on and on
I'll be nearly everywhere
Don't leave me all alone
Pickin up the pieces, pickin up the pieces

I love hall and oates, but I HATE this song!
I heard the Paul Young version of this song before I heard the 'Voices' album (which is terrific, BTW), and it took me a little while to understand this this is actually an H&O song.
Paul Young absolutely transformed this song into something quite special. The original is soulful and almost gospel-like. I guess you could say it's an acquired taste and unlike anything else on 'Voices'.
