Benjamin Tod - Long Gone lyrics
[Benjamin Tod - Long Gone lyrics]
What I've got to share
I've got flesh between my teeth
From living in a snare
The more I bite and struggle oh
The less I'd like to care
That I once held a virtue with
Green eyes and auburn hair
I'm long, long gone
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need this kind of love
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need my kind of love
You don't want none lady oh take it from me
The charm that I give you
Is anything but free
It'll cost you years and many tears
And it's not yours to keep
I poison everything I touch like
Nothing else that breaths
I'm long, long gone
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need this kind of love
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need my kind of love
You don't want none lady I
Can't be your man
I live deep in a holler between
The holy and the damned
And the only thing that keeps the peace
Are the voices in my head
Lord I pray that someday I
Find the time to wed
I'm long, long gone
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need this kind of love
Ain't a maiden here or yonder ever
Need my kind of love
