take me with you when you go,
don't leave me behind
take me with you when you go,
my friend you were hard to find
burn away burn away,
this empty shell you left behind
say you'll never leave me
I didn't mean to be unkind


one leaf left on the wall,
do you thing it's funny
I would never let you go
not for love and not for money
so take me with you when you go
don't leave me behind
take me with you when you go,
good friends are so hard to find


in a day, in a day
in a day, ya uh huh
in a day, in a day
in a day, ya uh huh


no one can tell you all of it,
tell me what I need to know
no one can give you all of it,
just take it as it comes and goes
come away, come away with me to places
I'm thinking of
there must be a name for it
this different kind of love


one leaf left on a wall,
do you think it's funny
I could never let you go
not for love and not for money
take me with you when you go
don't leave me behind
take me with you when you go,
good friends are so hard to find


in a day, in a day
in a day, ya uh huh
in a day, in a day
in a day ya uh huh


if you look through the window,
and there's one leaf left on the wall
it was painted by the hands that
couldn't let it fall
y que va y que va, one leaf left on a wall
painted by the hands just couldn't let it fall
take me with you when you go ...
take me with you when you go ...
