You’re not gone, really gone You’ll be back, I know you will You’re just taking a walk on the wild side of life
In my house are many heartaches, loneliness is all around Since you left for the life of nights out on the town I’ve got memories by the dozen, but I can’t throw one away Everything’s just like you left it, and that’s how it’s gonna stay
You’re not gone, really gone You’ll be back, I know you will You’re just taking a walk on the wild side of life
‘Til the bright lights lose their glamor and the music of it’s charm Until you tire of all the honky tonks that took you from my arms This old house of many heartaches holds a love enough for two And everything’s just like you left it, waiting here for you
You’re not gone, really gone You’ll be back, I know you will You’re just taking a walk on the wild side of life
You’re not gone, really gone You’ll be back, I know you will You’re just taking a walk on the wild side of life
