Steve Earle
You’re Still Gone
Every time the rain comes in
Every time I hear the wind
I can hear your voice again
Calling to my heart
Everybody looks like you
Every color turns to blue
No one knows what I’ve come to
Alone here in the dark
But when I close my eyes
The silence never lies
It’s then I realize
You’re still gone
Sometimes I can sing a song
Sometimes I know right from wrong
I can see where I belong
That simple song of faith
Dreamed you came back in the end
To fix my leaky roof again
When I asked where you had been
I found myself away
And I’m still all alone
And it chills me to the bone
But I keep going on
And you’re still gone
But I’ll never be the same
There’s no one I can blame
But I still call out your name
And you’re still gone
And the world keeps spinning around
And my heart still makes that sound
I can hear you laughing now
But you’re still gone
You’re still gone
And I don’t know what I’m waiting on
But I depended on you for so long
