From the recording FOR SOMETHING MORE
Lyrics
Lyin’ on that cold hearth stone
Waitin’ to be set free
She heard the knockin’ on the door
And the depth of the reality
Runnin’ past that front door cryin’
Feelin’ nobody cared
Starin’ at the tears in the mirror
Lost hope and despair
Ya well she gone away
Why’d she go
She gone away
Ain’t nobody know
All we know is that she gone away
She was full of life
With her smile and laughter
We all thought she was destined
For happily ever after
Her soul shined like those fireflies
In those tall pine trees
The appearance she presented
Was one of joy settin’ others at ease
Ya well she gone away
Why’d she go
She gone away
Ain’t nobody know
All we know is that she gone away
The glare from the settin’ sun
Hiding’ the darkness inside
Just like her blue eyes that dimmed
With her soul over time
We searched high and low for the hidden key
It couldn’t be found
Door was kicked in, phone was off the hook
Left dronin’ on the ground
Was it the endless carin’ for others
The betrayal of love
Was it the alcohol and pills
Or the confusin’ voices from up above
Ya well she gone away
Why’d she go
She gone away
Ain’t nobody know
All we know is that she gone away
All we know, ya all we know
Ya she gone away
