The Stars Won't Shine Tonight

I'm sitting here and I'm all alone,
My heart is sad because you're not here,
I have an ache that I've never known,
I just wish the pain would disappear.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright,
Now the night will be dark, believe me,
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.

I was so happy to be with you,
I loved you even more than I could say,
When you said you also loved me too,
I knew nothing bad could come our way.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright,
Now the night will be dark, believe me,
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.

The birds were all singing from the trees
On the happy day that we were wed,
I found loving you was such a breeze,
Yes, I meant all the vows that I said.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright,
Now the night will be dark, believe me,
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.

You said you would love me forever,
You said that you would always be there,
I would not be alone, no never,
For you said that you always would care.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright.
Now the night will be dark, believe me.
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.

But now you're gone and I am so sad,
And you have left me for another,
You were the best thing I ever had,
I loved you like I loved no other.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright.
Now the night will be dark, believe me,
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.

Chorus:
Tell me, why did you have to leave me?
'Cuz when you were here my world was bright.
Now the night will be dark, believe me,
'Cuz I know the stars won't shine tonight.
