Lyrics
I don't belong on this Earth for long
so I'll sing my songs about love and happiness.
I can't resist just a single kiss from the girl I miss
tell me where did my princess go?
She's Long Gone
she is Long Gone Ya'll
she's long gone,
Tell me where did my princess go?
And the Bird is the king
as I listen to him sing
from his thone up in the tree
he's always looking down at me..........
and he tells me
I don't belong NO I don't belong
but I keep moving on this planet
I can't believe how we cheat and deceive
while we take what we want
then we burn what we do not need
I'm long gone
I am long gone ya'll
I'm long gone but I keep moving on this planet.
And the bird is the king
as I listen to him sing
from his throne up in the tree
he's always looking down at me.
