Long Gone

She was long gone
Long, long gone
She was gone, gone
The bigger they come
The larger her hand, till no one understands
Why for so long she has been gone
Well I stood very still, by her window sill
And I wanted for those I love still
I cried in my mind when I stand behind
The beauty of love's in her eyes
But she was long gone
Long, long gone
She was gone, gone
The bigger they come
The larger her hand, till no one understands
Why for so long she has been gone
And I borrowed a page from a leopard's cage
And I prowled in the evening sun's glaze
My head lifted high to the light in the sky
The opening dawn on her face
But she was long gone
Long, long gone
She was gone, gone
The bigger they come
The larger her hand, till no one understands
Why for so long she has been gone
Well I stood very still, by her window sill
And I wondered for those I love still
I cried in my mind where I stand behind
The beauty of love's in her eyes
But she was long gone
Long, long gone
She was gone, gone
The bigger they come
The larger her hand, till no one understands
Why for so long she has been gone
Long, long gone
Long, long gone
Long, long gone
Long, long gone
Long, long
