Gone Lyrics

she sits and waits
as he contemplates
what he'll say
to make her cry
he holds her fate
will he tell it straight?
or confuse her feelings with his lies?

her minds a phone
as the dial tone
sits and waits for him to push her buttons

what will he say?
will it ruin her day?
or will all this time be forgotten?

he doesn't know what he's got

he begins to say
the words his conscience took away
for those few extended seconds
and when she cried
her eyes will be forever remembered in his mind
as her deadly weapon

he doesn't know
and he won't till she's gone
and she's gone for good

well it's too bad
he won't know what he had
till she's gone
and gone for good
but what will really hurt
is when she's wearing her short skirt
as a movie star in hollywood

he doesn't know what he's got
till she's gone
she's gone for good
