Days When You Were Gone (lyrics Susan Anderson / music Rice Drewry)

Chorus
How could we have known
There'd be days when you were gone
Days when you were gone
They roll on and on and on
How could we have known
There'd be days when you were gone


Verse 1
I read the warning on a ride-
The Road is Liable to subside-
along a tortured twisting country lane
Miss you more than we can ever say
The bees became so irritated
Sleeveless drummer syncopated
Kicked off Converse - on they ran
Hippie children dancing in the sand

Chorus

Bridge
Not a one of us can know
How it will all unfold
They were real my friend - real
They knew until the end
Just how it feels to share, love - be

Verse 2
She was sunlight, sweet Pumpkin girl
Peaches and cream came in the world
And he loved her all their days
Love so true, it never turned away
Now the lake it holds their names
Ashes scattered, shattered in the rain
now our hearts, they hold them close
Remember what we love most

Chorus
