You’re Here and Then You’re Gone 2/2002 Ken Selcer
Sing me a song, not too long, ‘cause I won’t always hear.
Play along, be real strong, ‘cause I’m not always here.
Day breaks, night falls, another day is gone.
Stay here, go on, you’re here and then you’re gone.
you’re here and then you’re gone. you’re here and then you’re gone.
Start to fade, feel dismayed, no way to explain.
Can’t evade, feel afraid, don’t want to complain.
Heart aches, feel small, another play is gone.
Stay near, stay far, you’re here and then you’re gone.
you’re here and then you’re gone. you’re here and then you’re gone.
Rita, Rita, I wish I didn’t have to need ya.
Rita, Rita, I wish I could embrace ya.
Lights dim, crowds thin out, the stage is very bare.
Look within, feel worn out, every one elsewhere.
Time’s up, go home, go where you belong.
Look up, go on,
You’re here and then you’re gone.
You’re here and then you’re gone.
You’re here and then you’re gone.
You’re here and then you’re gone.
