[verse] girl's gone

november 1993

one time here
one time gone
and now forever and ever away

once was here
far from there
now wond'r'n why i don't see her today

i can't open my eyes
why she's left me
now, i do realize
my baby's shown me...
life.

always dumb
when she was near
never thought i'd feel this today

now she is gone
and present are tears
if she could hear me, let her hear me say

you find the value of a person when she's gone
you find the need for someone when you're alone
