She said if I ever deceive her
She'd be gone before I could count ten
I guess that I didn't believe her;
Oh just look at the trouble I'm in
Chorus: Now she's gone, gone, gone
Gone, gone, gone, cryin' won't bring her back;
The more that I cry, the faster that plane flies
Father across the sky
Well I lost every right to be happy
Well I lost all the Heaven I found;
She warned me she'd leave and she left me
Before my first tear hit the ground
Chorus...
If I only knew where I could find her
Well I'd crawl there on my hands and knees
'Cause each tick of the clock will remind her
That she's one second farther from me
Chorus...
{instrumental}
Chorus...
Farther across the sky
