Stay Gone - Clint Black

We don’t always hear the end

When it knocks on the door

To let you know what’s coming there and then

You could slip in, in the dark

Find your way under my skin

You and your band of demons

Just move right in

And you come to stay

And you find your way

Into every breath I breathe

But I fought you and I beat you

Before you got too deep

I know there will be more of you

Bound to come along

So I thank my lucky star

To say we are through

And pray you stay gone

You get away with murder

You steal sanity from the sane

You rock the lives of moms and dads

And children all the same

And you never face your trials

Or you’d be somewhere doing time

Till the end of days, and kingdom come

Not a soul would ever mind

Every life you take will live again

There’s a part of every life that you can never win

But when you’ve taken all you can from me

And I finally lose it all

I thank my lucky star to say we’re through

And pray you stay gone
