Gone Away Lyrics


Maybe in another life
I could find you there
Pulled away before your time
I can't deal it's so unfair

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it feels
Yeah it feels like
The world has grown cold
Now that you've Gone Away

Leaving flowers on your grave
Show that I still care
But black roses and Hail Mary's
Can't bring back what's taken from me
I reach to the sky
And call out your name
And if I could trade
I would

And it feels
And it feels like
Heaven's so far away
And it stings
Yeah it stings now
The world is so cold
Now that you've gone away

Gone Away
  • This song is about lead singer Dexter Holland's girlfriend dying in a car accident and his emotional response to it. (thanks, Paul - Westlake, OH)
  • A much more mature and serious song than what The Offspring were known for.
  • This got more airplay than any other song on the album. Still, the record sold poorly compared to its predecessor, Smash, which was released in 1994.
