lyrics

When I’m Gone


I might be your cocaine cowgirl
I might be your highway queen
Might be your wife or the girl-next-door
Who broke your heart at just sixteen

Maybe I’m a little like your mother
Or a song she sang when you were a child
The way I move reminds you of another lover
Or maybe just the sadness in her smile

But I’m gonna let you love me
You’re gonna let me lead you on
I’m gonna leave you lonely
You’re still not gonna know me when I’m gone

Underneath these echos I’m a stranger
And come tomorrow a stranger I’ll remain
Falling for a vision is the danger, stranger
A temporary fix from all the pain

I’m not your cocaine cowgirl
Don’t wanna be your highway queen
I can’t be your wife or your mistress
And I know I’m not the girl you think you’ve seen

But I’m still gonna let you love me
You’re still gonna let me lead you on
I’m still gonna leave you lonely
And you’re still not gonna know me when I’m gone
