Gone Away
John Voorhees
The easy, fast & fun way to learn how to sing: 30DaySinger.com
As precious and rare as a diamond in the sand Gentle and knowing as a grandmother's hand My true love calls from where I used to be Trying not to sound too disappointed that I'm free And that I'm gone away Distant as a shooting star All points east of Zanzibar I'm gone away Gone away Filling up my empty mind Leaving what I love behind And trying not to say Why did I ever go away? Filled up my suitcase with things that I don't need Like travel cups and chewing gum and books I'll never read I can't take all the baggage that I'd like to save I'll have to do without those promises she gave Now that I'm gone away Distant as a shooting star All points east of Zanzibar I'm gone away Gone away Filling up my empty mind Passing through the borderlines And trying not to say Why did I ever go away? Mmm Past the horizon she is singing to the night Telling the world that everything is still alright I'd love to harmonize her hopeful melody If I return to her and she returns to me But I'm gone away Distant as a shooting star All points east of Zanzibar I'm gone away Gone away Filling up my empty mind Passing through the borderlines Leaving what I love behind And trying not to say Why did I ever go away?
