She's Gone

Everybody’s high on consolation
Everybody’s trying to tell me what is right for me
My daddy tried to bore me with a sermon
But it’s plain to see that they can’t comfort me
Sorry Charlie for the imposition
I think I’ve got it, got it, I think I’ve found the strength to carry on
I need a drink and a quick decision
Now it’s up to me, what will be?
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I better learn how to face it
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone, what went wrong
Get up in the morning and look in the mirror
There’s one less toothbrush hanging in the stand
My face ain’t looking any younger
Now I can see love’s taken a toll on me
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I better learn how to face it
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone, what went wrong
Think I’ll spend eternity in the city
Let the carbon and monoxide choke my thought away
And pretty bodies will dissolve the memories
But they can never be what she was to me
She’s gone. Gone. Gone.
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I better learn how to face it
She’s gone
Oh why? Oh why?
I’d pay the devil to replace her
She’s gone, what went wrong
She’s gone, what went wrong
She’s gone, what went wrong
