The Chi-Lites - Toby lyrics
rate meOh, oh, oh<br />
I remember when we were kids<br />
We shared all the hurt and tears<br />
<br />
No matter what the weather<br />
(What the weather<br />
What the weather)<br />
We were always together<br />
<br />
Then we grew up<br />
And time went on<br />
We became separated<br />
<br />
When I went off to school<br />
My sweet Toby waited<br />
I went off to school<br />
My sweet Toby waited<br />
<br />
Was a sad day<br />
When Toby went away<br />
Was a sad day<br />
When Toby went away<br />
<br />
Sad day<br />
Toby went away<br />
Sad day<br />
Toby went away<br />
<br />
I came home from spring vacation<br />
Expected to find my Toby waiting<br />
Called her on her private phone<br />
She didn't answer<br />
Something was wrong<br />
<br />
I ran all the way to her house<br />
Rang her bell<br />
Her mother answered and told me<br />
To come and sit a spell<br />
<br />
I sat down to try to be prepared<br />
For what she'd say<br />
And what she said<br />
Brought tears to my eyes<br />
I couldn't push away<br />
<br />
Toby left on a cloudy, rainy day<br />
She went to sing with the angels<br />
Toby's gone away<br />
<br />
It was a sad day<br />
Oh, oh, Toby went away<br />
It was a sad day<br />
When Toby went away<br />
<br />
It was a sad day<br />
Oh, oh, when Toby went away<br />
It was a sad day<br />
When Toby went away<br />
<br />
Was a sad day<br />
When Toby went away<br />
Was a sad, sad day<br />
When Toby went away
