Gone
She wants to leave the city behind
She wants another reason why
She always dreams of the sun

And if you ask her why
She doesn’t wanna settle down
Tell you it’s a real big world, to you and I so unknown

So now the people in her city don’t leave it until they’re sixty
And now she don’t know how she could be like them
She ain’t gonna be like them

And as I write this song, the wind in the trees, yeah they sing to me
Oh how lucky I am to have a woman like you

Girl I swear, I ain’t ever gonna let you go (let you go)
You and I are gonna travel the world
With the mountains and the sea to the rivers and the streams
We’re gonna see it all (see it all)
Take my hand, we’ll go till we’re gone

Gone
We don’t got no time to waste
Swimming in the rain, whilst they’re firing above
Oh, and all the people where I’m from
Oh, and all the people where she’s from
Wonder why I’m the help, wonder why I’m the help

Why don’t you just wait ‘till you’re 25
Why don’t you just wait ‘till you’re living right
She says, “I don’t wanna wait”

The sun goes down she dreams of a place so far away
And I dream of you

Girl I swear, I ain’t ever gonna let you go (let you go)
You and I are gonna travel the world
With the mountains and the sea to the rivers and the streams
We’re gonna see it all (see it all)
Take my hand, we’ll go till we’re gone

Girl I swear, I ain’t ever gonna let you go (let you go)
You and I are gonna travel the world, travel the world
With the mountains and the sea to the rivers and the streams
We’re gonna see it all (see it all)
Take my hand, we’ll go till we’re gone
