The Girl Is Gone

The girl is gone, the girl is gone

The girl is gone, the girl is goneExchanging love for an empty glass

Strangers touching and strangers laugh

When it's gone and the night has passed

I only think that I can talkFingerprints on a dusty walk

Remind me of what went before

And shadows dance on the bedroom floor

Edges life puts on a distant shoreBut I was wrong thinking that I'd be strong

Always wanting more

But I was wrong, see how the girl is gone

Pushing me at the doorBut I was wrong thinking that I'd be strong

Always wanting more

But I was wrong, see how the girl is goneThe girl is gone, the girl is gone

The girl is gone, the girl is goneMemories are still so strong

The clock ticks, the girl is gone

I used to think even though we were young

Somehow we'd just hold onDisappointment's a deadly thing

It spread like butter on the bed linen

Together then we're living in sin

We had our hopes but what did they bring?But I was wrong thinking that I'd be strong

Always wanting more

But I was wrong, see how the girl is gone

Pushing me at the doorBut I was wrong thinking that I'd be strong

Always wanting more

But I was wrong, see how the girl is goneThe girl is gone, the girl is gone

The girl is gone, the girl is goneThe girl is gone, the girl is gone

The girl is gone, the girl is gone
