So Gone Lyrics

How many times on this marry-go-round
Over and over again
Up on the horse was a weak foolish child
Never believed it would end
How many smokes
'Til I'm satisfied?
How many dreams 'til I'm happy?
How much of the day
Will I watch fade away
'Til there is no one to ask me?

I was gone
So gone
Gone so gone
For a while
How many times will I sleep by your side?
Turning and dreaming and scared
A fairground that's shut down
As you ride away
My horse won't go anywhere

I was gone
So gone
Gone so gone
For a while
I was wrong
So wrong
Wrong so wrong
For a while

How many songs will I try to write
All with the same thing to say?
I've got two tickets left
Won't you please stay with me?
The very last ride of the day
