Don't Know Why I Didn't Come Lyrics

Smokey Robinson Don't Know Why I Didn't Come

I waited till I saw the sun,
Don't know why I didn't come.
I left you by the house of fun,
Don't know why I didn't come,
Don't know why I didn't come.

When I saw the break of day
I wished that I could fly away,
Instead of kneeling in the sand,
Catching teardrops in my hand.

My heart is drenched in wine.
You'll be on my mind--forever.

I Would cross the angry sea,
Die in ecstasy
But I'll be a bag of bones
Driving down the road alone,

My heart is drenched in wine.
You'll be on my mind forever.

Something has to make you run
Don't know why I didn't come
I feel as empty as a drum
Don't know why I didn't come,
Don't know why I didn't come,
I Don't know why I didn't come.
