Lyrics

********

Ain't no use in talking 'bout it
There ain't that much to say
We tried our best
And to hell with the rest
It'll all make some sense one day.

I'm heading out of here this evening
My footsteps follow the sun
And when you finally see
What you had in me
You'll try to take me on the run.

(Chorus)
But you won't see me, anywhere!
You won't find me, 'cause I won't be there!
You won't touch me, but God knows I cared!
You won't see me... anywhere.

We try to hide from the answers
To the questions we're afraid to ask
But like night and day
They find us anyway
And leave us clutching on to the past.

'Cause our minds play tricks upon us
Painting colors when it's black and white
And our hearts remain,
Forever locked in chains,
And you're sleeping alone tonight.

(Chorus)
'Cause you won't see me, anywhere!
You won't find me, 'cause I won't be there!
You won't touch me, but God knows I cared!
You won't see me... anywhere.

(Bridge)
So long, goodbye,
I'll miss you when I'm gone.
(You know I'll miss you when I'm gone)
Over...it's over
But I'll miss you when I'm gone.
(Well I'll miss you when I'm gone)

(Repeat 4th verse)

(Chorus)
