Scotty Tuesday - Gone Lyrics

The nights of feeling loneliness
Once few and far between
Are now filled within the solitude of the fallen autumn leaves
Tears sting deeply in my face
My cough now cold and clean
This fortitude of grief has got me crying with relief

If life's a payback do I get a receipt?
Do away with your silver and gold and tell me what it means
To be gone
Gone
Gone
Gone
Gone
Now that you're gone

Simple explanations clearly wouldn't do
Answers hide between the lines of life and all its truths
Easily forgotten are the reasons for the signs
That shine in brilliant colors right before my eyes

If life's a payback do I get a receipt?
Do away with your silver and gold and tell me what it means
To be gone
Gone
Gone
Gone
Gone
Gone
Shouldn't be this way
Come back
And let me love you
Oh, baby!
The time in life has come when I relax
And maybe you're willing to love me after all?
Forgive the way I was
Now that you're gone
