Album: Storyville

A Love Gone Away

Well it starts out like a picturebook
Shiny and new
Just for the lucky, and only the few
Then when the silver has faded to grey
He sings "Oh, Oh"
One more love gone away

You can move any mountain with all that you feel
Walk through the fire turn iron to steel
Can a man keep the shadows at bay
He sings "Oh, Oh"
One more love gone away

Leaving two lonely people out on the tide
One misty morning with nothing to hide
Someone must go, and the other ones stay
Singing "Oh, Oh"
One more love gone away

My friend Chico reached the waterfront
Billy right behind
Chico said I've had enough
I'm losing my mind
How can a man keep the shadows at bay
Singing "Oh, Oh"
One more love gone away
