Shannon's Song


Well I was waiting around for the cameras to start to roll
So I could tell my tale of woe to the whole wide world
But in the time between the bells began to toll
And the shaking always opens up a hole

Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm finally home
Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm no longer alone

As the light erupts to accept my soul
And the marching bands and trumpets all fall
The angel spreads her wings to catch the crumbs down below
I'm so small oh Lord I'm so small

Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm finally home
Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm no longer alone

And the page finally has turned
And the man has finally learned
The lessons that are too big for all
I'm gone oh so gone

Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm finally home
Now I'm gone
Oh so gone
And I thank God that I'm no longer alone
I'm gone
Oh so gone
