After You've Gone Lyrics

You're just a mile away

 One thousand five tiny steps from here

 But if I brought you near

 Would you believe when I say

 It seems like yesterday

 That I could reach out and touch your face

 But as I fall from grace

 Into whose arms can I lay

 

 It's always much too late

 We get the signs

 We can't communicate

 Or turn back time

 

 [Chorus:]

 So what will be now

 Do you feel somehow

 Not so together and not quite as strong

 Now I believe

 Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

 After you've gone

 

 I need a healing wind

 To cool the flame burning in my sight

 It must accelerate

 For two wrongs they don't make a right

 

 And all these solitaires, lone victories

 Wars fought in isolation, with none to please

 

 [Chorus]

 

 [Instrumental break]

 

 The future's still uncertain

 The past is done 

 

 [Chorus]

 

 Now I believe

 Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

 After you've gone

 

 Now I believe

 Alone doesn't have to mean lonely

 After you've gone
