Gone Away Sally

She's always hated me And I say that's okay Sometimes that's better than Anonymity Back in middle school I tried to play it cool But all those years ago I made myself a fool And I said Girl, I wanna see your face I wanna feel your embrace I wanna keep you safe all the time Girl, I wanna see your face I wanna feel your embrace I wanna keep you safe all the time And how I hope she'll never know this Unless she's known all this time And every day I go to sleep prayin That when I wake she'll be mine And I'll always wonder What it would have been like To spend my days with her And kiss her goodnight And if she hears this song I wonder if she'll know That she's the girl I've wanted for so long And I said Girl, I wanna see your face I wanna feel your embrace I wanna keep you safe all the time Girl, I wanna see your face I wanna feel your embrace I wanna keep you safe all the time I know she hates me And I thought that's okay But every moment every hour every day She's in my head And I can't get her out She's in my head Forever now And I said Girl, I wanna see your face (She's smart and She's pretty) I wanna feel your embrace (But I know I'm not her type) I wanna keep you safe all the time (I'm backed up, all angsty cuz I know it's just not right) Girl, I wanna see your face (I'm tired, she hates me) I wanna feel your embrace (But not enough to date me) I wanna keep you safe all the time (I've cleaned up, since 18 maybe we can wipe the slate clean) Girl, I wanna see your face (She's smart and She's pretty) I wanna feel your embrace (But i know I'm not her type) I wanna keep you safe all the time (I'm backed up, all angsty cuz i know its just not right) Girl, I wanna see your face (I'm tired, she hates me) I wanna feel your embrace (But not enough to date me) I wanna keep you safe all the time (I've cleaned up, since 18 maybe we can wipe the slate clean) She's always hated me And I say thats okay
