Songs:Gone By Noon (133693)

Lyrics

Some say I died last night.
And you were the one left standing.
But I had to break the news
To you my love.

My family came to town.
It was the first time they made it down.
We wish we'd known she was that bad.
What little time she had.

So you led them down.
Where I was planted in the ground.
You point and say,
Go on and take your time it's her last day with you.

Well people wrote me off as dead.
But you and I'd still lie in bed.
Laughing while they shake their heads and whisper,
He thinks she's here.
But I still walked.
And you and I still talked.
If you listen hard enough.
You go away with second thoughts.

The service was quite nice.
You stood right by my side and held my hand.
But time got a hold of us.
We had to stay inside to stay in love.
When winter fails me springtime comes
And it's my season for moving on.

So I sat you down,
I had to spell the whole thing out
and you won't believe
There's nothing more here left of me.
You throw the kitchen table over.
Rest your head on my shoulder.
Make me cross my heart and swear it's true.
Babe I'll be gone by noon.
