He walks these streets sometimes until way past twelve
His mind can't decide if he's in heaven, he just can't tell
He sees her standing there smiling by the lamppost shine
His heart can't remember ever feeling oh so fine

She gone
She not coming back no way
She gone
She not coming back to stay
She gone

And as she turns away his eyes lost in her back
His feet continue down some ancient railroad track
And right then, right there he sees that he's done wrong
And as he opens his eyes, realizes that she gone

Well she gone, she not coming back no way
She gone, she not coming back to stay
Well she gone, she never coming back again
She gone, what's he gonna do till then?
She gone so far away She gone

Only in dreams
