Gone

The soap feels like rock in the shower

The water runs cold down my fingers

Like a blanket of snow over grass

It's taking too long, but I'm not really caring

I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's just the end of another hopeless cause

But I held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same, without your body next to mine

 

The trees sing their sweet sorrow

The birds calling out to the night

The stars all blink out to darkness

As with each step you get, further and further away

I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's just the end of another hopeless cause

But i held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same, without your body next to mine

 

Stepping out of the shower and into the light

The day isn't quite yet over

Theres time still for this not to be

Another hopeless cause

I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's jsut the end of another hopeless cause

But i held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same, without your body next to mine

 

Your eyes how they glisten and glimmer

Like the shine of a new autum leaf

They stare like icey blood daggers

Knocked out just by one look

And I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's just the end of another hopeless cayse

But I held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same, without your body next to mine

 

Climbing down the mountain of, my house stairs

Sprinting to the room where you, lying on my bed. I

Jump to the warm, stay there till dawn. I

know, you will be here, when I return

Oh I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's just the end of another hopeless cause

But I held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same without your body next to mine

 

The trees sing their sweet sorrow

The birds calling out to the night

The stars all blink out to darkness

As with each step you get, further and further away

I'm off with the stars and their friends

It's just the end of another hopeless cause

But i held it so close, I need you right here

It's just not the same, without your body next to mine

And you're going, going, going, gone.
