He's Gone

(album: Can't Wait All Night - 1984)

It was a dark night
A cold and lonesome wind
Freezes the moonlight
And follows me home
Some things are not right
Some things are wrong
And I don't think this time he's leaving
It think this time he is gone

'Cause that's where the chair was
There in that corner
I remember when there was
Some love in this home
Now the light on the stairs just
Burns all night long
And I don't think this time he's leaving
I think this time he is gone

He is gone and I don't know where to go from here
He is gone, there's nothing I can say
I've got my memories, I hope they stay strong
'Cause I don't think this time he's leaving
I think this time he is gone

Even the dark night
Will soon be over
It will be alright
Somewhere in the sun
With no tracks to cover
What's done is done
I don't think this time he's leaving
I think this time he is gone

He is gone and I don't know where to go from here
He is gone, there's nothing I can say
I've got my memories, God help me stay strong
'Cause I don't think this time he's leaving
I don't think this time he's leaving
I don't think this time he's leaving
I think this time he is gone
