I`ll Be Gone Lyrics

I`ll Be Gone

(D. Yoakam)

 

 I watch as you take off your clothes and slip under the sheets

 Then I turn and kick the boots off my feet

 I pull you close without a word 'cause there's no need to speak

 Girl, beauty like yours is hard to beat

 

 Chorus:

 But I'll be gone in the morning, in the morning I'll be gone

 'Cause I'm not one for hanging on

 Please don't think that you done something wrong

 In the morning when you wake and find me gone

 

 Just a look from those fiery eyes can all but erase

 The memory of any other's face

 And the passion they unleash could cause me to misplace

 And lose all track of time without a trace

 

 Chorus:

 But I'll be gone in the morning, in the morning I'll be gone

 'Cause I'm not one for hanging on

 Please don't think that you done something wrong

 In the morning when you wake and find me gone

 

 The sun intrudes and throws across the room its golden tracks

 Shake the dreams, now it's back to facts

 As I turn to leave I know you had what so many lack

 Maybe some day that'll bring me back

 

 Chorus:

 But I'll be gone in the morning, in the morning I'll be gone

 'Cause I'm not one for hanging on

 Please don't think that you done something wrong

 In the morning when you wake and find me gone

 

 But I'll be gone in the morning, in the morning I'll be gone

 'Cause I'm not one for hanging on

 Please don't think that you done something wrong

 In the morning when you wake and find me gone

 In the morning when you wake and find me gone
