Lyrics and translation
Original
I dug a single seed into the ground.
I hope it grows, grows.
In a year or two if you're around, you'll see a rose, rose.
Pack me up and keep me hidden somewhere that you can find me.
On a train to Paris going nowhere, draw a bridge behind me.
Don't be gone too long, too long.
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone.
Don't be gone too long, too long.
Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone?
When you're, when you're gone.
When you're gone.
Golden leaves are dancing on the ground.
It's getting cold, cold. Oh.
Say sometime we'll be forever young, never old, old.
See a ball of fire out in space zooming up behind me.
All the wonder written on your face was there inside me. Don't be gone too long, too long.
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone.
Don't be gone too long, too long. Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone?
No.
When you're, when you're gone.
Oh.
When you're gone.
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me. Is it really over?
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me. Is it over?
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me. Is it really over? Yeah.
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me.
Woo. Don't be gone too long. Don't be gone. Is it really over?
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone. Don't be gone too long.
Is it really over? Don't be gone. Who's gonna love me when you're gone?
Don't be gone too long. Is it really over? You won't be there to love me when you're. . .
When it's over. Don't be gone too long. Is it really over?
Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone?
