hands on a hardbody (original broadway cast) - i'm gone lyrics

Loading...

i have work at the u.p.s.
the job is pretty good i guess
i sort the packages midnight to dawn

around here you can bet
there’s no better job to get
it’s steady work you can rely upon

but i can almost feel the ocean breeze
when i read a label labelled “overseas”
and sometimes i get down on my knees
and pray

jesus, slip me in this package
and ship me far away
from t–th to fix and one more bill to pay

and i’m gone
so far away, gone
like yesterday, gone
so fast, so far, gone
like a shootin’ star, gone
like all good things
like, innocence and summer flings
a dandelion you blew a wish upon
scattered to the forewings

my momma, she still works today
her 401k is blown away
when she needs cash, she finds somethin’ to p-wn
she’ll prob’ly, never get the chance
to see paris, texas or paris, france
or a life that’s lived beyond her own front lawn
and that ain’t livin’, that’s just hangin’ on, on
i’m gone

i see you’ve got it all mapped out
only without a map

yep

well, i
always had this dream
since i was thirteen
to be a stuntman on the screen

well, yeah
i bet i’d do pretty good
at least i think i could
if i could get to hollywood

hey, come with me

what?

dangerous, driving all by yourself
i need somebody to keep me awake and change the channel on that satellite radio

i don’t know

don’t you want to see palm trees once before you die?

sure

well gas and grub, we’ll just fifty-fifty split
you sleep in the cabin, and i’ll sleep in the back

it’s done

i can see the people that i’ve seen

it helps to be compact

there in people magazin

i know that for fact

dancin’ with celebrities, for fun

maybe you could, act

for real?
you really think i could?

girl as bright as you

might as well, while i look good

no tellin’ what you’ll do

wear some pretty clothes and carry on

just don’t forget
i’ll be there too

’cause i can almost feel the ocean breeze
oh, can’t you feel the ocean breeze?
when i read a label labelled overseas
i’ll jump from buildings, swing from trees

and sometimes

i get down on my knees
and pray
if i win, then i’ll drive you. if you win, drive me? okay

somewhere far away from here
is where we’ll finally be
somebody that no one here can see

i know there’s a life out there
for me

we’re gone
so far away
gone
like yesterday
gone
so fast, so far
gone
like a shootin’ star
once it streaks
across the summer sky
fireworks on the fifth of july
a dandelion you blew a wish upon

put the petal to the medal

break off that rear-view mirror

and everyone will know that we were here
when we’re gone
when we’re gone
when we’re gone
