Won't do no good to hold no seance

What's gone is gone and you can't bring it back around

Won't do no good to hold no searchlight

You can't illuminate what time has anchored down



Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone away)



Won't do no good to sing no love song

No sound could simulate the presence of a man

Won't do no good asking no questions

Your divination should acquaint You with the plan



Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone away)



My feel for you, boy, is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion of a murdered prey

And all I want is to save you, honey

Or the strength to walk away



Won't do no good to go no distance

The space between us is as boundless as the dark

Won't do no good to throw no fist, babe

You can't intimidate me back into your arms



Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone a-)

Oh, Honey (I've gone away)



My feel for you, boy, is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion of a murdered prey

And all I want is to save you, honey

Or the strength to walk away



My feel for you, boy, is decaying in front of me

Like the carrion of a murdered prey

And all I want is to save you, honey

Or the strength to walk away
