"Gone" lyrics - JERRY CANTRELL

[Intro:]
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ooh

All dreams have died
Along the way
I coughed up the price
I bought a cage
I've had a hell of a time
Since I went away
Don't know when I died
Or where to lay down

[Chorus:]
Gone, gone away
Yeah, gone, gone away

God knows I've tried
I'm dyed in pain
Strong yet simple drive
The freedom to say
I've had a hell of a time
Since I went away
Homing on traces of light
That distance fades

[Chorus:]
Yeah, I'm gone, gone away
Yeah, I'm gone, gone away

[Post-Chorus:]
Gone away
Gone away, yeah

[Instrumental interlude]

So, they say with time (Say with time)
We slowly heal (Slowly heal)
I caught a flash of your smile (Caught a smile)
Through the fog of a dream (The fog of a dream)
I'll have a hell of a time
I clearly see
I can't be by your side
I'll see you when I sleep

[Chorus:]
Now you're gone... gone away
Yeah, you're gone... gone away

[Outro:]
Gone away, yeah
