After You've Gone

You're just a mile away One thousand five tiny steps from here But if I brought you near Would you believe when I say It seems like yesterday That I could reach out and touch your face But as I fall from grace Into whose arms can I lay It's always much too late We get the signs We can't communicate Or turn back time (Chorus:) So what will be now Do you feel somehow Not so together and not quite as strong Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone I need a healing wind To cool the flame burning in my sight It must accelerate For two wrongs they don't make a right And all these solitaires, lone victories Wars fought in isolation, with none to please (Chorus) (Instrumental break) The future's still uncertain The past is done (Chorus) Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone
