Gone (like) Lyrics - David Allan Coe

She's taken to walking alone in the evening 

She's taken to sleeping all night in his chair 

Together they both had a reason for living 

Back when the felling of loving was there 

Then she took to dreaming when he wasn't looking 

And he took to looking for moments alone 

Together they drifted apart from each other 

Together they both knew the felling was gone 

Gone like the sparrow south for the winter 

Gone like the river out to the sea 

Gone like the leaves from the trees when its snowing 

Gone like the love that they once gave so free 

Till he took to starring at his lonesome shadow 

And she took to humming the words to some song 

They both felt it slipping that feeling of giving 

Leaving the feeling of being alone
