Lyrics for Song: Gone Away From Me
Lyrics for Album: The Highway [2013]



I grew up in a town with one red light

How that train would rattle me in the middle of the night

But I slept like a baby in that bed

Cause mama kept me warm and she kept me fed



July 3rd was a dreaded friend of mine

We'd all go down to the family plot in the Louisiana pines

Staring at that little baby's grave

Stella was as young as she was brave



And what I'd give to go there again

Kiss my daddy's face, hold my mama's hand

Little did I know soon they would be

Lying right beside her, gone away from me

Gone away from me



They always made us kneel by grandpa's grave

Mama was a-wailing asking God if he was saved

I never liked to see my daddy cry

I guess I'll never know how grandpa died



And what I'd give to go there again

Kiss my daddy's face, hold my mama's hand

Little did I know soon they would be

Lying right beside him, gone away from me

Gone away from me (Gone away from me)

Gone away from me, from me (Gone away from me)

Gone away from me (Gone away from me)



You barely even see the tombstones now

The trees are grown up everywhere and no one keeps the grounds

Strangers live inside my childhood home

And I can't believe that daddy's really gone



And what I'd give to go there again

Kiss his withered face, hold her gentle hand

But there ain't no way that will ever be

They lie beneath that old tree,

Gone away from me (Gone away from me)

Gone away from me

Gone away from me (Gone away from me)



Well I grew up in a town with one red light
