I'll Be Gone

I'll Be Gone - American Music Club

It was a long hot summer day

We're in the living room watching

The light drain away

Hey you're too tired to read what

Your cards foretold inside of a yawn

When she said "The first time

You show me your true heart

I'll be gone"

I'll be gone I'll be gone

I'll be gone I'll be gone

The numb ringing after

The bell was rung

Playing red light green light

Such timeless fun

And there was no way to

Kick start any conversation

It was like the beginning of 2001

When she said

"I'll be gone I'll be gone

I'll be gone I'll be gone"

The air isn't moving and the women

Have nothing on their lips

But the kind of breath that

You keep for the hospital bed

Pregnant with the timeless drop and the wind

The air leeches the gold out of

Everything elusive but stolen but stolen

I'll be gone I'll be gone

I'll be gone I'll be gone

I'll be gone I'll be gone
