Horizontal Departure Lyrics - Robert Plant

And you said you'd never leave me 

In fact you said you'd be my only one 

I said you'd never grieve me baby 

For things do when you are only having fun, fun. 

You said you'd cry a river 

I thought you meant you'd cry a river of tears 

You'd rather die than live without me baby 

But little girl you're so insincere 

You know you count your blessings 

But now I find that you were counting sheep, counting sheep 

And then I try to court your feelings 

I caught your eye and then you caught my cheek 

All the trees [prisoners?] must come to view [feed?] now 

And there you stood so proud the apple of my eye 

You said you'd never leave me baby 

But little girl that's the reason why 

Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone 

Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone 

Let's go collect our prize now 

So entertaining we were no-one no-one [number one, number one?] 

The judge is hypnotized now 

But after all we both fooled [bought the fool] for so damn long 

So face the crowd and take a bow now, bow now 

'Cos one more time and it will all be done 

'Cos I must have been a show to you now baby 

My next performance has just begun 

Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone 

Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone 

Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone 

Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone 

Oh, Stop and think for a minute baby 

As they bring the curtain down 

Another drink then another, maybe 

The toast might not make rounds [To do so nothing rhymes?] 

I chose the style, the duck and the weaving [wheel?] 

We were famous for And here's to him, and here's to yours and 

You can thank me for the floor [... take the floor the floor] 

Whoa, that's why I have to leave you all alone 

Whoa, that's why you have to leave me all alone 

I don't know, so you turned around and found another fool 

I don't know, so you turned around and found another 

I don't know, so you turned around and found another fool 

I don't know, so you turned around and found another
