Lyrics

You're Not Gone

I've fooled my feet to think that we're still dancing
My ears believe they hear you when I'm home
My eyes still see your face
My arms feel your embrace
But I can't convince my heart that you're not gone

I haunt the same old barroom that we used to
That juke box it still plays your favorite song
I order drinks for two
Pretend there's me and you
But I can't convince my heart that you're not gone

And it's taking up all my time to live this lie
I miss you so, won't you please come home
And I'm faking it everyday like it's OK
But the rest of me is starting to catch on

I watch the sad charade that I'm still playing
And I wonder can I keep this up for long
I act a real good smile
I'll fool me for a while
But I can't convince my heart that you're not gone

Break

And it's taking up all my time to live this lie
I miss you so, won't you please come home
And I'm faking it everyday like it's OK
But the rest of me is starting to catch on

I go about each day just like I used to
I'm fine till I crawl in our bed alone
I wake up every night
To find I'm sleeping on your side
'Cause I can't convince my heart that you're not gone
No I can't convince my heart that you're not gone
