Gone Away

Far away you've gone, and left me here So cold without you, so lonely dear May, June, July, I count the time Every minute I go takes the smell of your clothes Further away 'Cause you've gone away Where there isn't a telephone wire Still I wait by the phone You don't even write to say goodbye Goodbye I have saved every piece of paper Like grocery lists and note cards To-do lists and race scores So just in case you change your mind and come back I've kept everything safe While you're gone away Where there isn't a telephone wire Still I wait by the phone You don't even write to say goodbye Goodbye Get me out get me off Get me out get me off For this is a ride going nowhere But somewhere that I despise Going nowhere to end up with a tearful - I don't wanna go on With these pieces of paper That you've left behind For this is a ride going nowhere But somewhere that I despise Going nowhere to end up with a tearful - I don't wanna go on With these pieces of paper To keep me company in my old age While you're gone away Where there isn't a telephone wire Still I wait by the phone Why don't you write to say goodbye? Goodbye
