The Feel Of Bein' Gone

Early in the morning she’ll be leaving
To visit with her mother for a spell
But I know that’s really not the reason
Because I know what she’s doing all to well
She says she doesn’t know how long she’s staying
Cause she hasn’t seen her mother for so long
What she really means but isn’t saying
Is she needs to get the feel of being gone
She would never simply leave me
Unless she knew that it was really best
Up till now she has no way of knowing
Tell she puts really leaving to the test
I know I’d be wrong to try and stop her
There’s nothing I can do but go along
And get used to the feel of being lonesome
In case she likes the feel of being gone
She has got to know for certain
What it’s like to live away from me
I’m so afraid I’m gonna lose her
Once she gets the taste of being free
I know I’d be wrong to try and stop her
There’s nothing I can do but go along
And get used to the feel of being lonesome
In case she likes the feel of being gone
