ain't enough tech

there's a ringtone
that takes my thoughts to your door
it's on my phone
but i don't hear it anymore
since you've gone away
now that you're gone

there's an icon
to let me know that you're around
and though it's turned on
i never see it or hear the sound
since you've gone away
now that you're gone

now that you're gone there's nothing left to say
ain't enough technology to get back to that day
can't undo what's been done anyway
can't even try
i can only cry
since you've gone away

there's a sweet scent
lingering in my old mailbox
a pale remnant
of letters the mailman brought
before you went away
but now you're gone

on my desk
a digital picture frame
you and I
looking grand on that day
before you went away
but now you're gone

now that you're gone there's nothing left to say
ain't enough technology to get back to that day
can't undo what's been done anyway
can't even try
i can only cry
since you've gone away

if I could jump back in time it wouldn't take a quantum leap
if I could get back just in time to find a way to keep
from watching you drive away
when you went away
and now you're gone

now that you're gone there's nothing left to say
ain't enough technology to get back to that day
can't undo what's been done anyway
can't even try
i can only cry
since you've gone away
