So it Goes

Lyrics

I felt that everlasting feeling leave her I turned away at first not believing And then it came on like a ton of heavy weather Bursting my countenance like an air raid She doesn't care about my city of gold She doesn't know my heaven She won't sleep in my buildings of precious stones She doesn't know my heaven She left at night on a plane Going south to find Jesus I left in the morning going west to Vegas Hoping to see the King So it goes, love is wasted on lovers Like Rock and Roll is wasted on youth You know you only miss them when they're gone There's nothing more friendless Than this town without you All these lights are pale without you There's nothing longer than my nights without you Every hour drags on forever
