Lyrics:

It was a long hot summer day
We're in the living room watching the light drain away
And you're too tired to read what your cards foretold inside of a yawn
She said, 'The first time you show me your true heart, I'll be gone.'

I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone

The numb ringin' after the bell was rung
Playing Red Light, Green Light, such timeless fun
And there's no way to kick-start any conversation
It's like the beginning of 2001, when she said

I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone


The air isn't moving and the women have nothing on their lips
But the kind of breath that you keep for the hospital bed
Pregnant with the timeless drop and the wind
The air leaches the gold outta everything elusive and stolen

Stolen
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
I'll be gone, I'll be gone
