Colin James Hay (born 29 June 1953) is a Scottish-Australian musician and actor, who made his mark during the 1980s as lead vocalist of the Australian band Men at Work, and later as a solo artist. Regarding his solo career, Hay stated, in 2011: "I feel like it’s been building for the last fifteen, or so, years that I’ve been touring. It’s slow and steady. It’s been word-of-mouth. People see the show, like it, and tell their friends. It feels very organic." more »

I don't know why
Why you had to leave me
And I don't know why
You said goodbye
Only if I try
Can I feel the earth beneath me
And as days go by
I come alive

the fall of your hair
The feel of your skin
And the smile on your face
As you took me in

now I lie
And stare at the sky
Still I wonder why
I don't know why

you said that you'd release me
No matter how I try
I still feel you

I watched a falling leaf
Drifting down towards me
Carried by the wind
It disappeared

I sat in disbelief
At what had become of me
And as the day grew dark
I rose to go

and as I walked along
I thought I heard you call me
Alas I was alone
So I went home

the fall of your hair
The feel of your skin
And the smile on your face
As you took me in

now I lie
No longer cry
But still I wonder why
I don't know why
You were taken from me
I cannot forget
Or say goodbye
