Gone

There was time you should have stopped

as you sailed into the fog

like a dog I smelled your fear

Lord knows you should've been here with me, but you were gone

These days roll sleepily by

I can hear the old trains cry

They will always be at home

Pulling me away from you

You're gone

Gone are the days when the wind would brush my face

Gone are the days when you’re the wind

And gone are the days when your heavy heart was worn on my sleeve

Take back your pictures

take back your letters

don't send me no postcards telling me you miss me

'cause I'm trying here

I'm trying here

Forget what they say

my mind is made up

they're all just starving like the rest of us

and I'm trying here

Oh I'm trying here

Gone are the days when the wind would brush my face

Gone are the days when you're the wind

And gone are the days when my heavy heart was worn on my sleeve
