All I Got and Gone

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The water made it through the roof Into the busted baby grand The drops are dripping on the mute, yellow keys Like the dead remembering a melody [Chorus] Play for me Play for me She is all I got, and gone [Verse 2] Well, Baby used to harp and jaw She'd argue with a weather-vane Tonight the wind is riled and raw; gon' let it rain Maybe I will finally get my chance to cave [Chorus] Anything I'd give everything She is all I got, and gone [Verse 3] And I tore this place up for a note: Sideboard, bureau, wardrobe, shelf But the heart has four darkened drawers And secrets from itself [Verse 4] So let that darkness take this room And all these so-called furnishings I got a snapshot of the moon I took inside of me Yellow eyes Crying over yellowed ivory [Chorus] Goodbye to me Say 'goodbye' to me She's all I got She's all I got She is all I got And gone
