She Gone (Only in Dreams) Lyrics

He walks these streets sometimes until way past tweleve
His mind can't decide if he's in heaven, he just can't tell.
He sees her standing there smiling by the lamppost shine.
His heart can't remember ever feeling oh so fine.

She gone.
She not coming back no way.
She gone.
She not coming back to stay.
She gone.

And as she turns way his eyes lost in her back.
His feet continue down some ancient railroad track.
And right then, right there he sees that he's done wrong.
And as he opens his eyes, realizes that she gone.

Well she gone, she not coming back no way
She gone, she not coming back to stay.
Well she gone, she never coming back again
She gone. What's he gonna do till then?
She gone so far away. She gone.

Only in dreams.

The last part reminds me of someone close to me that I don't want to ever leave me, but she must.

"Well she gone, she not coming back no way She gone, she not coming back to stay. Well she gone, she never coming back again She gone. What's he gonna do till then? She gone so far away. She gone."

My girlfriend just broke up with me. Consolation comes from this song. Especially the version on Anytime Now.

I saw OAR in Clemson, SC a few years back, and he told us before they played a frat party at Clemson many years ago, upon asking one of his buddies where his girl was, he friend replied "fuck it, she gone" thus the song was born.
