Time Has Gone

Your eyes they swim in alcohol

You give away the flowers

They buy you drinks to keep you here

Whiskey for an hour

I said goodbye to my hometown

The butcher still was sleeping

The smell of blood, the open road

A witness to your leaving

Time that I was gone

Time has flown

The search for you took me away

A light in a bedroom window

Out to sea I hear your name

The boat comes from the shadows

All things take time you told me once

And it's me on the ocean

The engine pumps a big black heart

Now the time is taken

Time that I was gone

Time has flown
