So Gone

Duncan Sheik

How many times on this merry-go-round
Over and over again
Up on that horse was a weak foolish child
Never believed it would end
How many smokes till I'm satisfied
How many dreams till I'm happy
How much of the day will I watch fade away
Till there is no one to ask me
I was gone, so gone
Gone, so gone for a while
How many times will I sleep by your side
Turning and dreaming and scared

Of fair grounds that shut down
As you ride away, my horse won't go anywhere
I was gone, so gone
Gone, so gone for a while
I was wrong, so wrong
Wrong, so wrong for a while
How many songs will I try to write
All have the same thing to say
I've got two tickets left, won't you please stay with me
For the very last ride of the day?
