Mary Chapin Carpenter Miscellaneous When She's Gone (Mary Chapin Carpenter) She threw her purse upon the bed She looked around and shook her head There's really nothing left, she said There's nothing I ain't done She wore your favorite dress tonight She hoped her hair would catch the light And you just sat there gettin' tight On double shots of rum You don't care what people say They're gonna say it anyway You don't hear what you can't use It's always been the same old news You don't beg and you don't plead Or miss a thing that you don't need She knew by the way you kissed her When she's gone, you won't miss her Morning comes on an old cat's paws And when the sun hits the walls The light's as bright as it ever was After or before And you wince as waking pounds your head And you drag your arm across the bed And the tangled sheets and the twisted spread Fall onto the floor And the kitchen table finds you silent If you had a thought, now you can't find it You take a long drag on your smoke And taste your coffee growing cold She didn't beg and you didn't plead She knew exactly how to leave The way she knew when you kissed her When she's gone, you won't miss her She didn't beg and you didn't plead She knew exactly when to leave The way she knew as you kissed her When she's gone, you won't miss her |
