Long Gone |
LyricsLong Gone©March 2004 You waltzed in to the room And our eyes met I was overcome in ways I can?t explain It was like I took a breath And couldn?t release it Until your eyes shined their light on mine again. You brushed by me in the crowd Exchanging glances Soon a careless touch led to a careless kiss. And I fell so unprotected and completely I?d known love before but never love like this. I can?t remember now how I?d done you wrong Or if maybe somehow you?d done wrong to me. The only thing I really know is one day I let you go And now you?re about as gone as gone can be. Yeah you?re gone. Long gone. Gone like a kiss cast on the wind You?re not coming back again. And I?m left alone to carry on. Nothing more to say. You?re just gone. Long Gone. {bridge} When people talk of hearts they call it breaking. I?m here to say that what they say is true. I had no words to make you stay And from then until this day. I?ve had a hole left in my heart shaped just like you. So I raise up a glass and toast your picture The one you gave me on the day we met. Sometimes I drink just to remember But tonite I?m drinking to forget. . Forget that you?re gone. Long gone. Gone like a kiss cast on the wind You?re not coming back again. And I?m alone left to carry on. Nothing I can do You?re just gone. Long gone. |
Short Song Description: Written for anyone who fell in love and somehow let it slip away. The reasons don't matter at all, it's the realization that sometimes people get lost and lose their way and they just wake up one day and say "What did I do?" But sometimes there are no sec |
