Story behind the song
The story is open to interpretation!
Lyrics
I’m Gone
Verse 1
Here in this mirrored hallway
With thousands of exit doors
Dappled walls reflect the gray
Broken images of the poor
Verse 2
Judi’s on an escalator
Rising above me now
The steps are disappearing
I’m past knowing how
Chorus
I just had a shiver run
Up and down my spine
I want to get back home
Believe me I’m trying
Have you seen me anywhere?
Wandering all alone
I’ve been looking here and there
I can’t believe I’m gone
Verse 3
Judi took off yesterday
Bags packed she left me cold
I wandered out to look for her
But never found the road
Verse 4
I hear my friends calling me from
some other distant time
But my thoughts are on Judi
I have crossed the line
Chorus
I just had a shiver run
Up and down my spine
I want to get back home
Believe me I’m trying
Have you seen me anywhere?
Wandering all alone
I’ve been looking here and there
I can’t believe I’m gone
