" Where Have You Gone? "

by Lauriel Chambers   Jul 6, 2004


Where have you gone?
we used to be friends
we'd talk on and on
again and again

Why did you leave?
So we'd be apart?
each step that you take
takes a piece of my heart

Why is it that
when I wanted more
than just a friend

In two seconds flat
you shut the door
and out you went

Out of my life
like a free bird
you flew

Into the sky
through the clouds
tinted blue

So how was it out there,
while you were away?
Will God answer my prayer,
and send you back safe?

So while I sit here
and think about you
the vision is unclear
but I'm seeing blue...

Blue shirt.
Blue jeans.
Blue eyes.

Then from a distance
I see you walk to me
and in an instant
the chills, they flow through me

Maybe it's the lighting
or how the breeze
has struck your face

But you seem to be liking
seeing me
and I'm amazed

I ask,
Where have you gone?
we used to be such friends
our talks went on and on
sometimes without an end

Why did you have to leave,
and keep us so apart?
each path you chose to lead
took a piece right from my heart
