Mike Heron - Born to Be Gone lyrics

I remember the night when my dog died

I was sitting just smiling by his side

When my Daddy came in

He could see I was grinning

He thought I was a cruel and a cold

Six year old

Oh pack up your bone

It's time to roll on

I know you wouldn't want no sad song

Though I'll be lonely as anything

There's no good that tears could bring

I've known all along

That you were born to be gone

You sure had somewhere to go to

Sure had a reason to run

But we had some fun together

Oh under the sun
