GONE

I see a wild deer bleeding by the side of the road

She finally paid back everything that she owed

Her heart is beating soft and slow like the night

Her eyes wide open, stepping into the light

Now she's gone, gone, gone

And she left me to mow the lawn

I was swept off my feet by the straw in her broom

The light in her eyes and her ancient perfume

The glow of a body that just wouldn't break

The bond we would grow and the love we could make

But now she's gone, gone, gone
