Lyrics to Here When Gone
Here When Gone Video:
I am a woman haunted by hands even though I'm alone
Traces of Pompeii across my skin
And an invisible map of where you've been
It's dry road to Idaho a thirsty tongue across the land
And soil so dry you could swallow an entire man
Took the first road out of town hoping that you were just skin deep
Well I feel you like some sort of phantom limb
Beside me when I sleep

Cause you are here when gone
You are here when gone
You are here when gone
You are here when gone

I watch another grey day unfold its dusty wings
Sometimes I wish I were more like rocks and stones and things
Sometimes I wish my heart were not like flowers at all
That way I wouldn't get butterflies when you call

And some birds abandon their young
Cause the instinct is too strong to fly
Well I feel like abandoning
My guitar and my books and I'm afraid
That I know why

Cause you are here when gone
You are here when gone
You are here when gone
You are here when gone
