Ever Since You've Been Gone

The night is far too quiet and the air is far too still I think I can hear voices through the walls The sound of music from a car stopped at the light until It moves on a few blocks to the strip mall Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Pretending I can hear the sounds of parties in the woods Further west, past the highway, across the river Maybe they are dancing 'round the tree trunks like I would Or blowin' smoke to keep away the shiver I imagine that they're singing to the stars because they've never felt so free But it's just the sound of tires on the pavement and wind in the leaves Ever since you've been gone I've been alone Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh From photographs I've seen online it looks as though you've found Yourself a pretty girl from Montreal Well, I've cut my hair up to my chin which makes my face look round I know you said that wouldn't suit me at all Another day turned into night don't turn a wrong into a right, I'm glad you didn't stay And even though I miss your touch the voices in the walls will do to keep me sane Ever since you've been gone I've grown strong Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh
