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
