Won't Be Back
"Won't be back"
Robbie Robertson
The letter that I sent to you, was it lost in the mail
then tell me why , there's no reply
Tell me, where can she be tonight
as I lay here in the dark, and I reach for you, I long for you
But you're gone like the wind,
and I know, that you won't be back again
Pictures of days gone by, that you painted as a child
you gave to me, you saved for me..
where does she sleep tonight?,
is she underneath a star,
the healing grace, the secret place
that you've gone, like the wind,
and I know, that you won't be back again
Oh look down, from your ivory tower
that's me standing, in the mist
and I try to hide, my broken cry...
but you've gone, like the wind
and I know, that you won't be back again
