You feel a tap upon your shoulder
Turn around there's no one there
Is your mind just getting older
Are you whispering a prayer
When you feel you're someone else
In the crowd all by yourself
Love, choice and destiny knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight Mr. Gone?

Twist your heart up over nothing
Your will is working double time
Intuition has misled you
She's polite, but so unkind
When you feel you're someone else
In the crowd all by yourself
Love, choice and destiny knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight Mr. Gone?

Where's you love
Where's your life
Get your head out of the sand
Free your mind
Free your soul
An open heart will understand
Everything is cool
Mr. Gone
We need love
Mr. Gone
We gotta make a change
Mr. Gone
Love, choice and destiny knocked on your door
You were gone
Sold your world to keep it free
Are you lonely tonight Mr. Gone?
Lose your personality
When all of your rights turn to wrong
Blinded by the things you see
Are you lonely tonight Mr. Gone?
