Gone From Love Too Long
Amanda Wilkinson

Baby sister set out for the bright lights of California

Said she was gonna be a star

No word from someone in six long months

Can sure get on ya, it was breaking Mommas heart


I drove that thousand miles like a bat out of hell

Searched every corner, every low rent motel

Till I found her there with greasy hair and a strangers eyes

And then she cried and I held her tight


And said, You've been gone from love too long

There's nothing to be ashamed of

No way you could have known


Life was gonna knock you down

Strip you to the bone and leave you all alone

Girl you've been gone from love too long


As the lights of LA faded in our rear-view mirror

She said, Sis I'm scared to death

I left home innocent, I'm going back a sinner

I've seen and done things I'd just as soon forget


She put out her last cigarette and crumpled up the pack

And said, What I wouldn't give to have just part of myself back

And I took her hand, said, I understand, she broke down

She said, Tell me how, do I face Momma now


I said, You've been gone from love too long

There's nothing to be ashamed of

No way you could have known


Life was gonna knock you down

Strip you to the bone and leave you all alone

Girl you've been gone from love too long


Momma met us halfway down the driveway

Held out her arms to her baby

And all she had to say is


You've been gone from love too long

There's nothing to be ashamed of

No way you could have known


Life was gonna knock you down

Strip you to the bone and leave you all alone

Girl you've been gone from love too long

From love too long
