In the ...

THere is a small town

Like any other.



There lived the prettiest girl around

She had long hair and glasses

Her name was Kara

She was a senior

At the highschool

I was on break from

The university

Sure I had seen her

Sure I had known her

She was a girl then

Now she was a women



And I was gone gone gone

gone gone gone

like the apple

adam couldnt help himself

and I was gone gone gone

gone gone kara goodbye



she worked on weekends

down at the grocery so

Saturday morning I had to go shopping

We made some small talk

and I tryed to be funny

when she smiled with those innocent eyes

I knew she could see through me

Well later that evening

we took a walk outside

the leaves were crunching

and our stars were crossing

We smiled at nothing at all

We laughed at everything

Well Monday morning, classes they were starting



And I was gone gone gone

gone gone gone 

like the falling star

in the middle of the night

I was gone gone gone

gone gone Kara goodbye.



First I came back home

every chance that i can get

then things started getting a little busy

the holidays were over

before you knew it i took an signed job in indiapolis

the city draped its fog over me

I told myself I was too busy to write

make a mistake of you and me



and i came home at the end of summer

like all the karas and i got another

she said she left to north carolina

to study art

do something wonderful



Kara where we are from in indiana

just a small town like any other

we all watched you

cuz we loved you

you were so beautiful

didnt even try yea



and you were gone gone gone

gone gone gone like the autumn

i fell in love

you were gone gone gone

gone gone kara goodbye.



do something beautiful

i know you will.
