Long Gone

She was long gone, long, long gone She was gone, gone, the bigger they come The larger her hand 'till no one understands Why for so long she'd been gone And I stood very still by the window sill And I wondered for those I love still I cried in my mind where I stand behind The beauty of love's in her eyes She was long gone, long, long gone She was gone, gone, the bigger they come The larger her hand 'till no one understands Why for so long she'd been gone And I borrowed the page from a leopard's cage And I prowled in the evening sun's glaze Her head lifted high to the light in the sky The opening dawn on her face She was long gone, long, long gone She was gone, gone, the bigger they come The larger her hand 'till no one understands Why for so long she'd been gone And I stood very still by the window sill And I wondered for those I love still I cried in my mind where I stand behind The beauty of love's in her eyes She was long gone, long, long gone
