Lyric After You ve Gone

AFTER YOU VE GONE

You re just a mile away
One thousand five tiny steps from here
But if I brought you near
would you believe when I say,
It seems like yesterday
that I could reach out and touch your face,
But as I fall from grace
into whose arms can I lay

It s always much too late
We get the signs
We can t communicate
Or turn back time

So what will be now, do you feel somehow
Not so together and not quite as strong
Now I believe
Alone doesn t have to mean lonely, after you ve gone

If it s a healing wind
That cools the flame burning in my sight
It must accelerate
For two wrongs they don t make a right

And all these solitaires, lone victories
Wars fought in isolation, with none to please

The future s still uncertain, the past is done
