Gone So Long

Just a small-town little girl Not a care in the world When I close my eyes, I see A little house across the street I met up that old oak tree That girl sure looks a lot like me I've been gone so long And I've been gone so long There are people in my life Who'll never see through my disguise A side of me nobody knows I'd wish I never left this yard The ground out here is cold and hard Back there's a girl I used to know And I've been gone so long And I've been gone so long And I've been gone so long I've been gone so long
