Long Gone Lyrics

What do you want?
That toasted look around your eyes makes me feel tired
I know that the circumstance that put you here
Is complicated

And I will never look at you and see you falling down
But I want to understand what keeps you hanging 'round your hometown

You shoulda been long gone
You shoulda been long gone

When did you stop putting all your dreams on paper?
Airplanes in the sky
You should know that you are not the only one who feels just like you do

And I will never look at you and see you falling down
But I want to understand what keeps you hanging 'round your hometown

You shoulda been long gone
You shoulda been long gone

And it's hard to convince you
That you're not a second fiddle
When I left you playing all alone
And I know you don't wanna hear it
But it's never too late
And I don't think that it's your fate
To end up tired and afraid and all alone
All alone.

Tell me stories that I should already know
Sing them in my ear
Wait til it gets dark under the moonlit sky
Then just disappear

I will never look at you and see you falling down
But I want to understand what keeps you hanging 'round your hometown

You shoulda been long gone
You shoulda been long gone
