Here where I live in Indiana,
It’s just a small town, like any other
There lived the prettiest girl around,
She had blonde hair and glasses,
Her name was Kara.
She was a senior at the High School,
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 woman
And I was gone, gone, gone,
Like the apple, Adam couldn’t help himself
I was 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 tried to be funny
When she smiled with those innocent eyes
I knew she could see through me
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
But Monday morning, classes they were starting
And I was gone, gone, gone
Like a falling star in an Indiana night,
I was gone, gone, gone, Kara, goodbye
First I came back home
Every chance that I could get
Then things started getting a little busier
And the holidays were over
Before you knew it I took a
Summer job in Indianapolis
And the city draped its fog over me
I told myself I was too busy to write
Biggest mistake I ever made
When I came home at the end of summer
I called up Kara, and I got her mother
She said she’d left for school in North Carolina
To study art and do something wonderful
Kara, where we’re from, here in Indiana
We’re just a small town, like any other
And we all watched you, because we loved you
You were so beautiful
You didn’t even try
And you were gone, gone, gone
Like the Autumn I fell in love
You were gone, gone, gone, Kara, goodbye
Do something beautiful
I know you will…
