‘Not Gone’

[Verse 1]
I’m still in your jeans from the night before
These were the only ones you forgot to pack up
I found your cologne by the bathroom drawer
And I would break the cap just to drink you back in

[Pre-Chorus]
Ma says you’re a keeper
Yeah I know, I know, I know
Your best friend swears he needs ya
Yeah I know, I know, I know
And papa he never says anything 'bout those other boys
He likes you babe
Like I do

[Chorus]
I can be stone cold
Hard as the night
Yeah I can let go
But this isn’t right
I know I pushed you on and on
You should be here with me, not gone
Not gone

[Verse 2]
You always said you’re not a city boy
Guessing by now that you’re far from LA
You'll go north-east back to Illinois
If the roles were reversed, baby
I’d do the same
[Pre-Chorus]
Ma says you’re a keeper
Yeah I know, I know, I know
You’re best friend swears he needs ya
Yeah I know, I know, I know
And papa he never says anything 'bout those other boys
He likes you babe
Like I do

[Chorus]
I can be stone cold
Hard as the night
Yeah I can let go
But this isn’t right
I know I pushed you on and on
You should be here with me, not gone
Not gone

[Bridge]
I know you’re a keeper
Yeah I know, I know, I know
Here’s how much I need ya
Yeah I know, I know, I know
And even if all that I'm saying is just a bunch of noise
I like you babe
I like you
[Chorus x2]
I can be stone cold
Hard as the night
Yeah I can let go
But this isn’t right
I know pushed you on and on
You should be here with me, not gone

Not gone
