Philip Morrison Singing His Original "She's Gone" a Capella

"She's Gone" - Music and Lyrics by Philip Morrison - Copyright 2008

Lyric

Verse 1

My life has grown blah
No more sis-boom-bah
No sturm and drang
To make a bang
Dead silence hangs

I long for her jab
Her meaningless blab
Her shrewish croak
Would cheer this bloke
Just now, no joke!
But,

Chorus 1:

She's gone
My lover has flown
And, damn her she's stolen
The fire from my soul 'n
She's left me smold'rin'

She's gone
Our love affair's done
Most guys would be glad
But, I'm not.
I'm just sad.
And, I can't move on.

Verse 2

My mind's eye's a-glaze
With halcyon haze
As Time parades
All venom fades
From insults paid.

My thoughts turn from slights
To post-fight delights
Harsh word-play
Switched to foreplay
Niched to scratch my itch
But,

Chorus 2

She's gone
My lover has flown
And, damn her she's stolen
The tune from my soul 'n
She's left a dull drone

She's gone
Our love affair's done
Most guys would be glad
But, I'm not.
I'm just sad.
And, I can't move on.

Bridge

Friends play the shrink
Tell me "Sap, just snap out of it!"
Why do they think
I can shrug her off like she's a cold April rain
When I feel I've been rolled by the Mother of Hurricanes

Chorus 3

She's gone
My lover has flown
And, damn her she's stolen
The wind from my soul 'n
I'm left in doldrums

She's gone
Our love affair's done
Most guys would be glad
But, I'm not.
I'm just sad.
And, I can't move on.

I can't move on
I can't move on
I can't move on
