Gone Too Long

(альбом: Bee Sides: Select Rarities 2015-2020 - 2020)

Déjà vu trips you when you strut
Nostalgic dreams can mess you up
A bitter cold sense of warmth, ache, familiar ghost
Flying circles 'round your head
Bringing back your hope but from the dead
I tend to forget, I tend to forget yeah, yeah, yeah

Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long
Went to myself, a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long

Away from yourself, you stray too far
Memories trapped in VCRs
The taste of ripened words you write, a brief escape
Somehow got lost somewhere, I did
Such innocence when we were kids
I tend to forget, I tend to forget yeah, yeah, yeah

Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long
Went to myself, a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long

High and low
I imagine inside of my soul
Hidden in a basement, hangs around
A still painted picture

Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long
Went to myself, a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I been gone for way too long)
I been gone for way too long, yeah
