gone away

Lyrics

i step outside and take the cold in like a pill, then i wake up and dream it was a dream i dreamt, that old house stuck up on a hill somewhere, makes me cry out loud and wipe away the tears again, how do i know that you ain't gone away, how do i know that you ain't gone away, heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away, they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away, in the morning mist i call out your name, but i don't hear it echo the voice of the insane, all the memories on your window sill they keep a sweet refrain, if all that's good's an accident i'm not the one to blame, how do i know that you ain't gone away, how do i know that you ain't gone away, heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away, and knowing all the answers won't take away the pain, now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane, they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away, starstruck the letters on your mantlepiece, read like death in venice on the beach, and you ain't gone away, how do i know that you ain't gone away, heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away, and knowing all the answers won't take away the pain, now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane, they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away
