lyrics

The take-off
the long flight
into the dark and moonless night
The phone call that woke me cried
That you had died

Relationship broken
For years we had not spoken
I thought that you didn't care
And I was scared

All these years it's been the same
You had your fortune and local fame
Now you're gone and the phone call claims
You left it all in my name

The touchdown
The sunrise
I had to see with my own eyes
The phone call that woke me said
That you were dead

You're gone

Goodbye
So long
Too late
You're gone
