I'm Gone

Some chewin' gum and candy, some magazines and snacks

Some startin' over money that I've been holdin' back

A change of clothes and notepad to write a letter back

To say so long

A one-way ticket sayin', "Goodbye to everything"

Threw my wedding band out the window of the train

All I want's my freedom, reclaim my maiden name

I'm movin' on, 'cause I'm gone, yeah

You can tell the truth or you can lie

You can say I left you or I died

Say I'm in the Himalayas on some spiritual quest

And could spend years lookin' for the light

Say I'm in the witness program with the FBI

Say a UFO abducted me from home

You can say what you choose, but I tell you the truth

You can say for sure I'm gone, 'cause I'm gone

You think that you're above me, like I'm not good enough

You make me feel unwanted, unwelcome, and unloved

You're selfish, vain and greedy, you're hateful, rude and rough

And you're so wrong

But you'd rather live unhappy and tolerate the pain

Than separate and have me takin' half of everything

Well, I'm leavin' your possessions, left on the goodbye train

Left you alone, 'cause I'm gone

You can have the house, the car, the boat

My records, books, and stereo

The dog and the cat, my ceramic shop out back

My doll collection and my clothes

You can keep all our friends and all the pictures in the den

And the fluffy pillows you sleep on

But when you lay your head on that big feather bed

You can rest assured I'll be gone, I'll be gone

You can tell the truth or you can lie

You can say I left you or I died

Say I'm in the Himalayas on some spiritual quest

And could spend years lookin' for the light

Say I'm in the witness program with the FBI

Say a UFO abducted me from home

Well, you can say what you choose, but I tell you the truth

You can say for sure I'm gone

You can say what you like but I'll tell you twice

You can say for sure, say for sure I'm gone

Gone

Some chewin' gum and candy, magazines and snacks

Startin' over money I've been holdin' back

Change of clothes and notepad to write a letter back

To say so long

I got a one-way ticket sayin', "Goodbye to everything"

I threw my wedding band out the window of the train

All I want's my freedom, reclaim my maiden name

I'm movin' on, 'cause I'm gone

(I'm movin' on) Oh, I'm gone

(I'm gone) Gone

(I'm movin' on) I'm gone

I'm so gone (I'm gone)

I'm gone, gone (Gone)

I'm gone
