Monday Saints
She's Gone
Lyrics
Beauty in hindsight
Reading at night
Light a candle
Reading at night
Shadows move around the room
Shadows move around

With passion
Something I must have said
Something I must have said
A word or two displaced
Here I make my stand
She's gone

She would lie here
Reading at night
Light a candle
Make love by firelight
She was fire and she was pain
Light a candle
She's Gone
Candle's burning
She's gone

With passion
Something I must have said
Something I must have said
A word or two displaced
Here I make my stand
She's gone

She?s gone

Description
Short Song Description:
Regretting a breakup
Long Song Description:
This song deals with the memories that are left over when the romance is over and the girlfriend is gone. There are lots of images of fire, so one might assume that the relationship was firey. The moving shadows represent memories
Story Behind the Song:
She's Gone is a reworking of an earlier song that might have been considered too controversial. Other than the music, the melody and lyrics have completely changed and most consider 'She's Gone' to be a much better song all around.
