lyrics

In the morning light I looked in your eyes
& you were there looking back @ me
In the evening light you were by my side
Telling me everything is gonna be alright

Cause you've been gone, gone, gone
Takin by the breeze
& there's no way on this earth you'll be coming back to me

In the summertime you were in my mind
softly calling out to me
It was that witch of yours keeping tabs on me
With the spell you cast down by the sea

Cause you've been gone, gone, gone
Takin by the breeze
& there's no way on this earth you'll be coming back to me

All of this time
Passin me by
Got me askin questions like
Why all these reasons and these seasons
have never healed the wound you left behind

Saw your eyes today on anothers face
Like you were spying on me watching with disgrace
I had to learn to live
live without you babe
Which led to empty arms and dealing with the shame

Cause you've been gone, gone, gone
Takin by the breeze
& there's no way on this earth you'll be coming back to me

And if you could meet me now
Said if you could meet me now
I'd be down
I'd be down
I'd be down
