I just found the frame — where I took your picture away — in my wallet, like a saint from some other place
That picture repays my eyes as they glaze
A thousand lashes from a love, long gone away
I'll know that you're gone for good when the dawn kicks me awake
I'll dress and move on, put on what I can take
So take and get on, you sweet thing
There's a phone call, aimed at me tonight
Here it comes; out go my lights
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
Now, I've got the frame and some baggage I claimed
I came home to a world, sadly changed
So I got stoned 'til I thought this house a home
When I came down, I found myself alone
I'll know that you're gone for good when the dawn kicks me alive
I know we'll go on; somehow, we'll both survive
So take and get on, you sweet thing
Tonight, you'll find me alone and getting high
Up we float, down I fly
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
You leave me nowhere, far out of sight
That picture repays my eyes as they glaze
A thousand lashes from a love, long gone away
I'll know that you're gone for good when the dawn kicks me awake
I'll dress and move on, put on what I can take
So take and get on, you sweet thing
There's a phone call, aimed at me tonight
Here it comes; out go my lights
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
Now, I've got the frame and some baggage I claimed
I came home to a world, sadly changed
So I got stoned 'til I thought this house a home
When I came down, I found myself alone
I'll know that you're gone for good when the dawn kicks me alive
I know we'll go on; somehow, we'll both survive
So take and get on, you sweet thing
Tonight, you'll find me alone and getting high
Up we float, down I fly
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
Leave me nowhere, far out of sight
You leave me nowhere, far out of sight
