Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
If you can, in my name,
If you can, in my name,
Shed just two tears.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
I will console my weeping heart, I will.
I will teach my eyes to not dream of you, I will.
May no path in life ever sever your ties,
May your broken heart find its peace in me.
For your light,
For your light,
Burn down my home.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
What reward have you given for love's fidelity?
You held me on your eyelids, then cast me from your sight.
I've spent countless nights awake, sleepless and distraught,
The love letters I wrote, penned with a finger cut and taught.
O beloved, those letters,
O beloved, those letters,
Burn them with a smile.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
Go, friend, leave me behind, erase this love from your heart.
