Gone, like a breeze blowing by

Gone, didn't get to say goodbye

I got half a dozen questions

And not a single reason why

I could say that I'm okay

Oh but that would be a lie

Gone, she just up and ran away

Gone, she had nothing left to say

Though I loved her all I could

Still I could not make her stay

Cause when her mind was made up

Nothing could stand in her way

She's gone

Gone for good

She had a sadness in her heart

That I never understood

She's gone

Gone for good

But if I'm honest with myself

I always knew one day she would

Gone, like the stars in the city sky

Gone, just like the sparkle in her eye

How I tried to lift that weight

That she held so deep inside

It was a secret kind of pain

That her smile could not disguise

She's gone

Gone for good

She had a sadness in her heart

That I never understood

She's gone

Gone for good

But if I'm honest with myself

I always knew one day she would
