I got no place I can go
No I got nothing I can do
I am waiting for an answer
But all I see is you leaving faster
Mention me the moment and I'll start to cry
Tell me no story for I have been untied
Where have you gone to my lady?
Or have you gone and I'm crazy?

I whisper to myself no
As I hear the call of the crow
These eyes are dry and greying
There is something inside of me saying
I must lay down my weapons
So I can learn the next lesson
Where have you gone to my lady?
Or have you gone and I'm crazy?

No, these hours aren't mine
They belong only to the hands of time
But you, I thought I had you
When we sailed together through the blue
Yes I thought we were together
But now I see we were really apart
Where have you gone off to my lady?
Or have you already gone and I'm crazy?

The wind outside my window crackles and howls
My face has grown weary always wearing a scowl
I've forgotten the way of things and how to see
I remember a past but it makes no difference to me
As I sit in a grey lit morning
I think of our sweet life turning
Oh' where have you gone off to my lady?
Or have gone and I'm crazy?

Rain has started to fall as it wets the high grass
The rust on the rails chips the fine polished brass
Each pebble I walk upon
Is the like the end of our song
I look through my eyes but I see only you
I try to be strong but I don't have a clue
Where have you gone to my lady?
Or have you already gone and I'm crazy?

I can't recall how I used to be without her
I've lost my feelings and I can't find the cure
I tell no lies but she's inside and I can't hide
The trials of pain I try day and day to feign
When I think through life
All I see is lines n' lines of strife
No smile can grant me the beauty she held
Waving her hand soft eyes sparkle like a spell
Where have you gone to my lady?
Are you already gone and have I gone crazy?

Eagles feathers press against the side of my head
As I lay alone with no one near in my bed
The coffee is boiling the streets are getting run down
I don't even know how long I've been living in this town
People say my name but I can't recall
If I arrived here in Summer or in the late Fall
I make my way to the river
As I feel a familiar shiver
Where have you gone to my lady?
Have you gone and I'm crazy?

Turn off the heat and let me turn off the light
This room is getting hot and the people too bright
Lay down your worries and pull up a chair
Outside there is nothing so hang up your cares
I see no reason to continue nor hope in the score
Everyone around me shouts love but I see lore
Swear to me the rules of right and wrong
And I'll show you a life without love lived too long
Where have you gone to tonight my lady?
Or have you already gone and I'm crazy?
