Gone Before They Leave

 

Looking through your pictures

You must’ve been a happy child

When all the brightest stars

Revolved around your moon

Well I never got your message

I must’ve left it in a bottle that sank

 

Take a walk around town

Downtown people shuffle down the street

Fits the picture, picture perfect like a dream

They’re always gone before they leave

 

Fall by the wayside

As days slowly fall away

Still searching for something

Something you won’t find today

Life was your playground

But my world was never your scene

 

Take a walk around town

Downtown people shuffle down the street

Fits the picture, picture perfect like a dream

They’re always gone before they leave

 

They’re always gone

They’re gone before they leave…
