i step outside and take the cold in like a pill
|
then i wake up and dream it was a dream i dreamt
|
that old house stuck up on a hill somewhere
|
makes me cry out loud and wipe away the tears again
|
|
how do i know that you ain't gone away
|
how do i know that you ain't gone away
|
heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away
|
they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away
|
|
in the morning mist i call out your name
|
but i don't hear it echo the voice of the insane
|
all the memories on your window sill they keep a sweet refrain
|
if all that's good's an accident i'm not the one to blame
|
|
how do i know that you ain't gone away
|
how do i know that you ain't gone away
|
heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away
|
and knowing all the answers won't take away the pain
|
now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane
|
they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away
|
|
starstruck the letters on your mantlepiece
|
read like death in venice on the beach
|
|
and you ain't gone away
|
how do I know that you ain't gone away
|
heaven's on your doorstep and you ain't gone away
|
and knowing all the answers won't take away the pain
|
now you can see the reasoning the truth of the insane
|
they make up lies tell you things and you ain't gone away
|
