Another Day Gone

(album: Every Little Word - 1994)

I said 'goodnight' to the crowd
Found my way back from another night out in the blue
The sad ones remind me too much of myself
The sweet ones remind me of you

I'd sure like to call 'cause it's lonely out here
But a man hates to say he was wrong
So I'll pull this old guitar up close to my chest
And sing for another day gone

Another day gone, further and further
Away from the arms of the sweetest love I've ever known
I wonder how long the pride of a man can hold on

Facing the dawn, faster and faster the night slips away
And the road it just rolls on and on, sleeping alone
Waking up to another sad song of another day gone

When I walked away
How could I have known, how far we'd drift apart?
Now the time and the distance I thought would save us
Has stolen my place in your heart

And now you don't need me the way I need you
You found your own way to move on
And the star I've been chasing just fades in the night
At the end of another day gone

Another day gone, further and further
Away from the arms of the sweetest love I've ever known
I wonder how long the pride of a man can hold on

Facing the dawn, faster and faster the night slips away
And the road it just rolls on and on, sleeping alone
Waking up to another sad song of another day gone

Another day gone, further and further away
From the arms of the sweetest love, I've ever known
Sleeping alone, waking up to another sad song of another day gone
Waking up to another sad song of another day gone
