Away, away
I gave no thought to moan
Content to sit alone
But then you gave your words as bait
Was my mistake, I ate
No more to sit alone
Now I yearn, I groan
Seems you meant it so to be
You'd draw a part of me
Passions soar and friendship dies
Jewels we now deny
To deal with me this cruel, cruel, way
It eats away,away
