Intro verse 1 On the morning of her wedding day ) When no one was awake She drove across the border Leaving all the yellow roses on her wedding cake Her mother's tears, her breakfast order She's gone, gone, gone Instrumental verse 2 There is a moment, a chip in time When leaving home is the lesser crime When your eyes are blind with tears But your heart can see Another life, another galaxy Bridge That night her dreams are storm-tossed as a willow She hears the clouds She sees the eye of a hurricane As it sweeps across her island pillow But she's gone, gone, gone Outro There is a moment, a chip in time When leaving home is the lesser crime When your eyes are blind with tears But your heart can see Another life, another galaxy
