So gone away This may be the last time You will hear me say I'm goin' away So long today I'm walking through my shoes And as my clothes they start to fray I'm going away Should I – meet you there halfway Hear just what you have to say Should I go or should I stay I'm gone away I'm goin' to pray May be the first time
But until my dying day I'm going to pray So gone away This may be the last time You'll see me in this cabaret I'm gone away As we near the New Years Day I know I'll be moving on Things are better off this way I wish it was the fifth of May But the sun is in the west Blue skies turned to grey
