You're not gone really gone you'll be back I know you will
You're just taking a walk on the wild side of life
In my house are many heartaches loneliness is all around
Since you left me for the life of nights out on the town
I've got mem'ries by the dozen but I can't throw one away
Everything's just like you left it and that's how it's gonna stay
You're not gone really gone...
[ guitar - fiddle ]
Till the bright lights lose their glamour and the music all its charm
Until you tire of all the honky tonks that took you from my arms
This old house of many heartaches holds a love enough for two
Everything's just like you left it waiting here for you
You're not gone really gone...
You're not gone really gone...
