Long Gone

You can stay the same if you want to

That you don't is what I pray

I knew it wouldn't be easy

To get you to change your ways

But I'm through trying, I'm through crying

When you look for me lying next to you

I'll be gone

I'll be long, long, long gone

Twas warm breeze blowin'

Across eternal bay

Several boats docked early

Must have been a bad day

'Cause the fishermen weren't smiling

We'd been fighting for a while now

Never missed the island 'til it was gone

Long, long, long gone

I always thought I'd be your king

Welcomed in your home

Now I hear another voicе

Is trying to claim my throne

Please don't try to find mе

Whereabouts unknown

You can picture me in love with you

No matter what I say

My mind knows what's really true

But my heart sees it another way

For your information

Despite temptation

I'm turning in my resignation, I'm gone

I'm long, long, long gone

I need to find a new location

Where I, I belong

I'm long, long gone

Oh and even though

My love for you is still strong

I'm long gone

Don't you know that

I'm long, long, long gone

Said I'm long gone
