"Gone" lyrics
"Gone"
My buddies think I'm on the lake
Boss thinks I've been sick for days
And mama's probably on her way
'Cause I ain't picked up the phone
I've been a million places
But they're all up in my head
Over-drinking, overthinking ever since you left
I've been gone, I've been gone
I've been sittin' on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long, I've been tryin' to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I've been gone
Took a trip down memory lane
Checked into hotel heartbreak
Passed rock bottom on the way
Without leaving my living room
I've been a million places
But they're all up in my head
Over-drinking, overthinking ever since you left
I've been gone, I've been gone
I've been sittin' on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long, I've been tryin' to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I've been gone
Yeah, I've been gone
All the clothes are on the floor
All the mail's by the door
All the whiskey bottles in my bed
All the dishes in the sink
All the gas is in the tank
All the neighbors probably think I'm dead
I've been gone, I've been gone
I've been sittin' on the couch watching TV all day long
All day long I've been tryin' to figure out how a good thing went wrong
Faster than that freight train, farther than that airplane
Sadder than a country song
Headed down that highway, anywhere but my way
Ever since you moved on, I've been gone
I've been gone
Gone
Writer(s): Dierks Bentley, Jeff Hyde, Laura Jeanne Veltz
Dierks Bentley told about "Gone", "When I first heard that title, I just thought it is a great title for the times right now," and added, "Just a great song about the idea, about a girl leaving a guy, and the guy's been gone ever since. Sitting on his couch but he's been gone."
"Gone" was written by Dierks Bentley with Hardy and David Garcia who also produced it. Bentley said, "I just love the writing on this song, and production—you know—mixing of those big guitars and drums."
