[Verse 1]

On the morning of her wedding day
When no one was awake [(C)]
She drove across the border
Leaving all the yellow roses on her wedding cake
Her mother’s tears, her breakfast order
She’s gone, gone, gone

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]

There is a moment, a chip in time
When leaving home is the lesser crime
When your eyes are blind with tears
But your heart can see
Another life, another galaxy [C/B]

That night her dreams are storm-tossed as a willow

She hears the clouds
She sees the eye of a hurricane
As it sweeps across her island pillow
But she’s gone, gone, gone

?

There is a moment, a chip in time
When leaving home is the lesser crime
When your eyes are blind with tears
But your heart can see
Another life, another galaxy
