Long Gone

Norma Jean was on the big screen but I was your girl
I was your only one
You would never want for more
I was your morning sun

Long gone, long gone
Where did you go, where did you go
Long gone, long gone
Just like the ten-cent movie show

Your dusty cowboy boots beneath my single bed
Your blue work shirt laying on my chair
In a dream it feels like yesterday
Your fingers were running through my hair

Long gone, long gone
Where did you go, where did you go
Long gone, long gone
Just like the ten-cent movie show

I found this ticket stub
Don’t ever take too much
To bring you back to mind

You said the sparkle in my green eyes
Made each day feel new
And should the hard times search us out
That sparkle would carry you through

Long gone, long gone
Where did you go, where did you go
Long gone, long gone
Just like the ten-cent movie show

I found this ticket stub
Don’t ever take too much
To bring you back to mind
