Do you always like it better when you are walking Away? So no one can stay close to you and no one knows your Name Well the trees are growing slowly love And the night is coming fast So let's hide out in our rooms tonight And dream of the day that past But it's quiet when you're gone You've been traveling for days Now it's quiet when you're gone Like a movin' movin' train Does the preacher know where we all go When it is time to die? Or is he singing us to sleep just so we'll shut our Eyes? So Sheila's on the telephone, says she can't see me Again No it ain't me, no it ain't her
It's just her new boyfriend He says it's dangerous to talk to those who you only Admire And every boy's perfect for her Because every boy is a liar But it's quiet when you're gone You've been traveling for days Now it's quiet when you're gone On a movin' movin' train And I don't see what the big deal is I mean really, I'm just fine See, I fake a smile everyday from nine to five And you want love before it happens When it's gone you want it to stay But forget those things that you had Cause we all just took them away, again
