Heather Myles - Gone Too Long

I`m sorry if I left you without sayin` goodbye.
Didn`t think you`d understand the reasons why.
By the time you read my letter, I`ll be crossing that line,
If you`re thinkin: "I`ll go get her" then you`re wastin` your time.
You`re gonna find out , baby,
I`ve been gone too long.

Don`t cry for me, baby, after I`ve gone.
Save your dollars on the telephone.
You`re gonna need that money to pay the rent.
`Cause I won`t be comin` back with one red cent.
You`re gonna find out , baby,
I`ve been gone too long.

Bye bye. baby.

Instrumental break.

I sold that beat up Chevy to your best friend, Phil.
Had every intention of payin` them credit card bills.
Now I don`t know where I`m goin` but the signs say west.
Ask me or your mother: you can give her my regrets.
You`re gonna find out , baby,
I`ve been gone too long.

Instrumental break.

Don`t cry for me, baby, after I`ve gone.
Save your dollars on the telephone.
You`re gonna need that money to pay the rent.
`Cause I won`t be comin` back with one red cent.
You`re gonna find out , baby,
I`ve been gone too long.

You`re gonna find out , baby,
I`ve been gone too long.

Bye, bye, baby.

I `ve got the check book with me.
Oh, an` if you`re looking for them golf clubs: don`t.

You see, I had this little yard sale,
Oh, an` darlin, don`;t forget the beanie doll.

Go now.

Fade out.
