When it hits me that she's gone I think I'll run for President And get my face put on the million dollar bill So when these rich men that she wants Show her ways that they can take care of her I'll have found a way to be there with her still When it hits me that shes gone I'll think I'll be an astronaut Make the moon my home and leave this world behind So when she steps out to the night and find the light that makes her pretty She'll be facing me everytime she shines When it hits me that shes left me alone When I finally move on with my life Her goodbye written into stone And her shadow moving through the night When it hits me that shes gone I'll think I'll be a movie star Be the finest man the world has ever seen The lovers that she has found Tell her ways they have learned to talk to her Behind each perfect word is a little bit of me
