When She's Gone

[Verse 1]

I'm shaking like a leaf on a tree

Do you understand, will you come with me?

Don't make a sound, don't even breathe

They'll understand, why don't we leave?

[Verse 2]

We can steal a ride on a bus

Drive down a road all covered in dust

Head north by northwest 'til we reach the coast

We'll find an address that don't get the post

[Chorus]

When she's gone

Even though she won't be long

It just tears my world apart

Puts a hole right through my heart

[Verse 3]

She let me see her new tattoo

It was my name written in blue

A mark of pain across her chest

I was the lover on her breast

[Verse 4]

So come with me and don't be afraid

We could be free out of the shade

Your life has begun, come on lets run

Over the ground in an air raid

We've got the gun, don't be afraid

[Chorus]

When she's gone

Even though she won't be long

It just tears my world apart

Puts a hole right through my heart

[Chorus 2]

Only when this girl has gone

Will I know if I am wrong

Who would choose a life of one?

I can't carry on when she's gone

[Bridge]

[Chorus]

When she's gone

Even though she won't be long

It just tears my world apart

Puts a hole right through my heart

[Chorus 2]

Only when this girl has gone

Will I know if I am wrong

Who would choose a life of one?

I can't carry on when she's gone

[Chorus]

When she's gone

Even though she won't be long

It just tears my world apart

Puts a hole right through my heart

[Outro]

Only when this girl has gone
