Lyrics
You’re Gone
Music & Lyrics by Rändi Fay © 2015
I see your number on the call.
I shouldn't answer it at all.
I can't resist the urge, so strong.
I haven't heard you for so long.
You whisper memories on the phone.
You wonder if I am alone.
You made a choice that has gone wrong.
It doesn't change the fact you're gone.
Your words are more than I can bear.
I act as if I couldn't care.
You sing a melancholy song.
You say that you and I belong.
Wilted petals in the wind
carry off what might have been-
tho love may rise again at dawn.
It doesn't change the fact you're gone
You put a spin on history,
edit truth so easily
with the velvet of your calm,
convincing me that I am wrong
Your words are more than I can bear
You know exactly where to tear
at the silence of my song
it doesn't change the fact you're gone.
I can breath your emptiness,
feel the void that doesn't rest
know the flavor of your want
The bitterness goes on and on1
Wilted petals in the wind
carry off what might have been-
tho love may rise again at dawn.
It doesn't change the fact you're gone
Oh the nights are cold.
Loneliness can take it's toll leaving
shattered dreams and scattered hope
No, I won't change my mind….
