“20 Years Gone”

Well, the hurricane came and everything changed
The water kept arisin’ and washed the little town away

And every night she has the same old dream
About a different time and place that she’s never been
(You know what I mean)

But, too much time is gone and it won’t be back
This bird has flown and the world has broken your back
You look around and see that you’re all alone
You look around and see- 20 years gone

Now, bless her little soul and pass the ammunition
She wished upon a star but don’t call it superstition

When all is said and done, there’ll be more said than done
Everything inside her screams “drop everything and run”
(But it’s easier said than done)

But, too much time is gone and it won’t be back
This bird has flown and the world has broken your back
You look around and see that you’re all alone
You look around and see- 20 years gone

Well, did you stop to think about it, think about it?
Or did you think you couldn’t ever live without it?
Live without it?

But, too much time is gone and it won’t be back
This bird has flown and the world has broken your back
You look around and see that you’re all alone
You look around and see- 20 years gone
