Lyrics
Leo, Leo
Gone so far away
Hope we will find you
in just another day
Leo, Leo
why didn't you stay here?
all of your family around you fear
Yeah, you went to her house
she wasn't home that day
you went into the forrest
andn ow you've gone away
Leo, Leo
why didn't you stay here?
all of your family around you fear
Look under the bed, under the bed
he's a goust now, goust-
look under the bed, under the bed
he's a goust now, goust- now goust-
Oh tell me where did you go darlin'? where did you go?
Baby, I dont know
you went into the forrest, they burried you at sunset
I went up to your grave and you were gone
nothing lasts forever, nothing is to treasure and all my treasures come and go
Oh tell me where, did you run darlin'?
You went away so long before
like a robin drifting through the air
and on that train to ride you alonjg
nothing lasts forever, nothin' is to treasure and all my treasures come and go
Oh than the sun went down, oh than the sun went down
og I did not know oh where to go, oh when the sun went down
so tell me where did you go darlin'? where did you go?
Baby, I dont know
you went into the forrest, they burried you at sunset
I went up to your grave and you were gone
nothing lasts forever, nothing is to treasure and all my treasures come and go
and all my treasures come again
(Voices shouting Leo, Leo where are you?!)
