Lyrics

Late afternoon
Dreaming hotel
We just had the quarrel
That sent you away
I was looking for you
Are you gone, gone?

Called you on the phone
Another dimension
Well, you never returned
Oh, you know what I mean
I went looking for you
Are you gone, gone?

Down by the ocean, it was so dismal
Women all standing with shock on their faces
Sad description, oh, I was looking for you

Everyone was singing
Girl is washed up
On Redondo Beach
And everyone is so sad
I was looking for you
Are you gone, gone?

Pretty, little girl
Everyone cried
She was the victim
Of sweet suicide
I went looking for you
Are you gone, gone?

Down by the ocean, it was so dismal
Women all standing with shock on their faces
Sad description, oh, I was just looking for you

Desk clerk told me
Girl was washed up
Was small, an angel
With apple blonde hair, now
I went looking for you
Are you gone, gone?

Picked up my key
Didn't reply
Went to my room
Started to cry
You were small, and angel
Are you gone, gone?

Down by the ocean, it was so dismal
I was just standing with shock on my face
The hearse pulled away
And the girl that had died, it was you

You'll never return into my arms 'cause you were gone, gone
Never return into my arms 'cause you were gone, gone
Gone, gone
Gone, gone

Goodbye
