It seems I'm always lookin' for something I can't find Love that's true and lasting to ease my troubled mind Just when I think I found it and new light starts to dawn Darkness closes in and love is gone
Chorus: Here to stay then blown away and gone like the smoke From a fast mail train rollin' down the track Whistle blows off she goes Gone and she's never comin' back Gone, gone, gone
I told her that I loved her She said she loved me too Neither one was lyin' and yet it wasn't true We kept on hopin' love would find a way to carry on Then we woke up one mornin' love was gone
Chorus
Why does this keep happenin, is this the path I chose Is there something deep inside that makes me bound to lose That makes me turn this love away when closest I am drawn The moment that it's finally here it's gone Here to stay then blown away and gone.
