I can still remember every song you played Long ago when we were younger and we'd rock the night away How could I see your future then where you would not grow old With such a fire in our belly such a hunger in our souls.
I guess I probably loved you and those words rolled off your tongue Seemed that we were trailing under some unlucky sun And though I couldn't save you and no one was to blame But the road we shared together once will never be the same
Hey Gone away Won't be coming round again Hey With a song I pray And on the wings of a song I'll fly away.
I wandered in the wilderness for a while I was so lost To everything there is a season and every blessing has it's cost So I took what you left me and put it to some use Went looking for an answer with those three cords and the truth
I come down from the mountain I come walking in your shoes I was taken for a gambler when I had no more to loose But you put me on that path. How could I refuse? And I spend my whole life out here working on the blues
Hey...
So I carried on. You can't be haunted by the past. People come. People go. And nothing ever lasts. But I still think about you and wonder where you are Can you see me from some place up there among the stars
But down here under heaven there never was a chart To guide our way across this crooked highway of the heart And if it's only all about the journey in the end On that road I'm glad I came to know my old friend.
Hey Gone away Won't be coming round again Hey With a song I pray And on the wings of a song I'll fly away.
