From the recording The Other Side
Lyrics
NOTHING’S THE SAME
the sun don’t rise like it used to
and the moon don’t set as sweet
the birds won’t sing when they’re supposed to
and the leaves on the trees aren’t as green
the stars in the sky, they stopped shining
and the winds from the north just won’t blow
eveything’s turned all upside down
nothings the same since you been gone
nothings the same since you been gone
you been away for months now
you didn’t warn me you were gonna go
you left in the middle of a long dark night
without even leaving a note
I wonder where you’re wandering
and who you might be wandering with
the snow that falls won’t touch the ground
darlin’ I miss you just being around
nothings the same since you been gone
I write you a letter each morning
put on paper the things that I’ll say
when I finally get to see you again
I’m still praying for that day
the letters are here in a pile now
I’ve tied them up with ribbon and lace
I think I’ll hold on to them a little while
when I dream all I see is your face
nothings the same since you been gone
