Lyric

I Might Be Gone

Momo

Guess I might be gone

When the town’s sleeping still

Feel like a thief stealing none

I love you, love the place

Somehow I’m running away

From another denial we’ll face

Before settled down

Oh I didn’t even try

You didn’t blame as if you knew I might be gone

We all astray

But could never get lost

Even if you wanted to

The mirror will find you in the end

I don’t want to stay

I don’t want to go anywhere

You turned me around and put me back

At exactly the same place

But something’s wrong with me

I cannot fit in no more

Since I came back

There was no place to be

That’s what I left behind while I was walking ahead

We all astray

But could never get lost

Even if you wanted to

The mirror will find you

My feet walking off the way that I don’t hope

Wish you called me back

That I can’t make it by myself

Otherwise I’m leaving like a thief stealing none

I’m leaving like a thief stealing none

Artist Profile

  • Momo

    Momo (Momoko Kawabata) is a singer songwriter known for her passionate piano style, occasionally accompanied by the support of violins and a band. She was born and raised in Chiba, the neighbourly prefecture of Tokyo without much influence from any friends, family or the music industry over there. She self-taught herself how to write songs, how to sing and how to play the piano, mostly relying on her ears and so Momo's unique playing style is highly influenced by this. Although she is often described as the Japanese Kate Bush or Ben Folds, she is into guitar music and live bands such as Elliott Smith, Deerhunter, Modest Mouse and so on rather than shiny piano pop music.
