Gone Away

I step outside and take the cold in like a pill

Then I wake up and dream it was a dream I dreamt

That old house stuck up on a hill somewhere

Makes me cry out loud and wipe away the tears again

How do I know that you ain't gone away

How do I know that you ain't gone away

Heavens on your doorstep and you ain't gone away

They make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away

In the morning mist I call out your name

But I don't hear it echo the voice of the insane

All the memories on your window sill they keep a sweet refrain

If all thats goods an accident I'm not the one to blame

How do I know that you ain't gone away

How do I know that you ain't gone away

Heavens on your doorstep and you ain't gone away

And knowing all the answers won't take away the pain

Now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane

They make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away

Starstruck the letters on your mantlepiece

Read like death in venice on the beach

And you ain't gone away

How do I know that you ain't gone away

Heavens on your doorstep and you ain't gone away

And knowing all the answers won't take away the pain

Now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane

They make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away
