Gone Lyrics - Beauty Queen Sister - Indigo Girls

GONE 

A long drink of water and a pickup truck 

On a bone dry summer I've been out of luck 

But when you blew into town I felt the winds of change 

A little bit scary and a little bit strange 

I know from being broken harder 

With nothing to lose 

Doesn't take much around here 

To make such big news 

And I'm gone 

Mama left her warning from the old front porch 

But I'm gone 

They say you'll burn me like you're Sherman with a big bad torch 

I've seen a million suns go down on this tired town

Now you're here and I'm gone 

So in comes the stranger to the tight lipped frowns 

The walls come up and the shades go down 

I can't help but see it like a movie scene 

Where you bust on through and you rescue me 

And the sign of a happy ending is an out of state tag 

Outside of the house where the girl inside is packing her bags 

And I'm gone ... 

Does it seem like it's too much to ask 

For reckless grin and a tank full of gas 

Gone ... 

And I don't know if I will ever belong 

But I'm done here doing time and I'm moving along 

And I'm gone 

Gone 

Mama left her warning from the old front porch
