I keep starin' at the clock Stumblin' 'round the house in shock I don't know what I feel I can't believe that this is real I don't know what to wear I don't know who will be there I wanna call you, I wanna cry I don't wanna say goodbye ♪ Turn the key, make the drive Park and watch the cars arrive Friends I never knew you had It's movin' slow, it's movin' fast I walk by your photograph I hear your voice, I hear your laugh Everybody's dressed in black I still think you're comin' back How could you be gone? How could you be gone? ♪ I'm sitting in a plastic chair The preacher's words hang in the air A cross of roses, pink and white Slideshow pictures of your life Children run across the lawn They don't understand you're gone I'm lookin' for you in the crowd Lookin' for you in the clouds How could you be gone? How could you be gone? ♪ We all hang our heads to pray Preacher tells us what to say I don't know what I believe I just know I have to leave I walk alone back to my car I go before the goodbyes start I have always been this way You were the only one who could make me stay How could you be gone? How could you be gone? How could you be gone? How could you be gone?
