lyrics

Well I know you said goodbye
But did you ever really go?
And I know that you're not here no more
But did you ever really go?
That song is still playing that was on the radio
When I peeked past my paper at you standing by the door
You slammed it and the windows crashed and the same cold winds still blow
Oh but I don't know
Did you ever really go?

I don't see you at church no more
But did you ever really go?
And I know you felt like hell
But did you ever really go?
I get mad, I say things in a voice that I don't know
Devil cats get my tongue and twist it up in crooked bows
When I said "Go to hell" I didn't think you'd really go
Oh but I don't know
Did you ever really go?

I went walking through the cemetery
Looking at the names on stones
And I didn't see your name engraved
Did you ever really go?
In bed at night I swear I see drifting eyes that glow
But when I turn on the light, I am bare naked and alone
If I were sure that you're not here, then I'd beg you to come home
Oh but I don't know
Did you ever really go?
