sheila was always on my side
always told me secrets, she told me bout her life
sheila was always on the run
she wasn't trying to escape, she had ears to seek out fun

Chorus:
sheila's gone away

sheila stayed out every night
only came home when it rained, then she would come inside and dry
sometimes she'd be gone for some days
sometimes I'd worry and hope sheila was OK


sheila's gone away

one cold winter-night she came home
sheila made her way through, miles and miles of snow
that night I forgot to unlock the door
sheila came home that night but, she dont come around no more

sheila's gone away
