Long Gone Songtext
von Salter Cane

For so very long
For so very long time
Wanted truth
Bend my backbone and break my roots
I was alone
And I met her

Now I′m thinking and it's more than I can take
Looking in the back room through this box that′s full of snakes
Heart's beating faster than my faith
And it's pulling me down once again
And I won′t be back for days


Well it was dark for so long
We shut our eyes
As I awoke years later
To my surprise
Oh when I first heard that music
Well I couldn′t sleep for days
Told her my secret
It was a sudden leap of faith
No listen to me
You, me, faith, love, sound

Now I'm thinking and I still can′t see the joke
Looking out the back door through this cupboard full of smoke
Black night's burning in my throat
And it′s pulling me down once again
Going down, down, down, down, down
In the dark where the bad people go
Can't see what′s in there but somehow you know
You open that window and let it come in
It finds where you're sleeping, yeah
Then it begins, yeah

And I've been dreaming that my soul is burning fire
And I see her standing there calling me a liar
Soul denied, pushing higher and higher
And burning me down once again
And I won′t be back for days
