Gone, gone away, gone away in the night In the night, in the night, in the night, is the light Is the light you won’t ever see Hand, in your hand, in your hand, in your hand Is the sound, is the sound, is the sound, is the sound Is the sound that leaves all of us Are you or are you not my friend Can you understand me Without some kind of magic hearing aid from across the sea of japan? Down, down, down you go In the way, in the way, in the way that you flow That you flow And I won’t say “I” You won’t listen when I’m talking to your face And you won’t pretend Taking care of yourself can be a chore For all your friends’ weekends Gone, gone away, gone away in the night In the night, in the night, in the night, is the light Is it all you hoped it would be You will not see me
