Simon Was Lyrics

Simon Was
Petrojvic Blasting Company

Simon was a real hard worker
No tougher job than to love his own mother
Although she did try she tried to love him
So finally he said "enough I'm leaving
The worlds is full of arms just dying to receive me"
Au revoir from you I'll be closer, closer to them
She cried don't go away, son don't go away
You know son I will change
Son you know I can change

Me and Simon we were friends so early
We were young but together we were sturdy
Enough to brave the world all on our own
We traveled off to far away places we kept on moving
Till we found one worth staying
It was there that we fashioned our own little home

Well, we got away
Boy we got away
You know our lives will change
At least our lives will change
But no one is gone
But no one is gone

"It's been amazing but I think I'm leaving" I said to Simon with my stomach heaving As his eyes moved from a chair and then down to the floor
He asked me what exactly what was my reason I said "I didn't know but I sure don't believe in this life here, I mean its perfect but it isn't real"

He cried don't go away
Oh don't go away
You know your mind will change
Boy your mind will change

We drank coffee as we sat in silence
My bag beside me and my ticket to the airline in my pocket felt as heavy as a gun
As I stood up I thought: "I wonder if I'll see him
This is exactly what you knew you'd have to deal with so just keep on walking or better yet run"
I thought don't go away

Boy don't go away
You know your mind will change
Be strong no don't let you mind change
But no one is gone

But no one is gone
