Pete McDonald: Music

Go away
Go away from me
Go on back to your life
Where you need to be
Cause I won’t stay
Babe I can’t stay
I’d just let you down
My standard way

So take your time,
it won’t worry me
Let loose slowly and just let it be
And leave me with nothing but a memory
Leave me with nothing but a memory

She said, “I’m leaving.
I just gotta go.”
I said, “Why so soon,
You’ve got time you know.”
She said, “I’m tired,
Tired of waiting
You’re just down and out
Bright but fading.”

She said, “I’ll leave you now like you want me to.
You can keep the memories,
I’ll just take a few,
And turn the light off and on blue,
And turn the light off and on blue.”

I said, don't look back.
Don’t look back this time
Don’t try to change me
Don’t try to make it rhyme

Get some sleep.
Try to sleep tonight.
Let go of those dreams
And it will be all right.

And I remember how you used to turn around
My eyes met blue and I’d settle down
Cause I knew that you’d always be around
I thought you would always be around

But when you’re gone
I’ll still think of you
The love we made
and what it put us through
And I’ll turn the light off and on blue.
Turn the light off and on blue.
