Gone Too Long
by The Rocket Summer

Album: Bee Sides - Select Rarities 2015-2020

Verse 1
Deja vu tripped you in your strut
Nostalgic dreams can mess you up
A bitter cold sense of warmth
Vague familiar ghost
Fly in circle around your head
Bringing back your heart up from the dead
I tend to forget, I tend to forget yeah, yeah

Chorus
Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long
Write to myself a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long

Verse 2
Away from yourself, you strayed too far
Memories trapped in VCRs
The taste of light in words you write are brief escapes
Somehow got lost somewhere I did
Such innocence when we were kids
I tend to forget, I tend to forget yeah, yeah, yeah

Chorus
Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long
Write to myself a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long

Bridge
High and low
I imagine inside of my soul
Hidden in a basement hangs a rose
Pastel painted picture

Chorus
Wish I could say knew I was wrong
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long
Write to myself a prodigal song
I've been gone for way too long
(I've been gone for way too long)
I've been gone for way too long
