Kevin Osmond
For Four Hours
He's been gone
Gone for four hours
Where he is, apparently we know
But how do we know he's there?
He's been gone
For four hours
We last saw him
Before we left for BJ's
He's been gone
For four hours
But God knows why he's gone
Apparently, it's to go to a meeting
But how is that more important than us?
Just because something happened
With him and drugs
Twenty-something years ago
Means oddly be away for varying amounts of time
But, sure I'll take your word for it
He's been gone
Been gone for four hours
I've been to a meeting with you
And it lastеd a hell of a lot shorter than now
So who do I beliеve?
Myself or you?
Truly the hardest question of all
You've been gone for
For four hours
I hear you on the phone
Saying "I'm going over the bridge"
But isn't that what you say
Everyday?
Maybe when I'm done with work
You'll finally be home
