I’m Gone

Some chewing gum and candy
Some magazines and snacks
Some starting over money that
I've been holding back
A change of clothes and notepad to write
A letter back to say so long
A one-way ticket saying
Good-bye to everything
Threw my wedding band out the
Window of the train all I want's my freedom
Reclaim my maiden name
I'm moving on because I'm gone

You can tell the truth or you can lie
You can say I left you or I died
Say I'm in the Himalayas
On some spiritual quest
And could spend years looking for the light
Say I'm in the witness program with the FBI
Say a UFO abducted me from home
You can say what you chose
But I tell you the truth
You can say for sure I'm gone
Because I'm gone

You think that you're above me
Like I'm not good enough
You make me feel unwanted
Unwelcome and unloved
You're selfish, vain and
Greedy you're hateful, rude and rough
And you're so wrong
But you'd rather live unhappy
And tolerate the pain
Than separate and have me
Taking half of everything
Well, I'm leaving your possessions
Left on the good-bye train
Left you alone because I'm gone

You can have the house, the car, the boat
My records, books and stereo
The dog and the cat, my ceramic shop out back
My doll collection and my clothes
You can keep all our friends and
All the pictures in the den
And the fluffy pillows you sleep on
But when you lay your head
On that big feather bed
You can rest assured I'll be
Gone I'll be gone

Some chewing gum and candy
Magazines and snacks
Starting over money I've been holding back
Change of clothes and notepad to write a
Letter back to say so long
I got a one-way ticket
Saying good-bye to everything
I threw my wedding band out of
The window of the train
All I want's my freedom
Reclaim my maiden name
I'm moving on because I'm gone
Oh, I'm gone, gone, gone I'm gone
I'm so gone, I'm gone gone, I'm gone
