GONE BABY GONE
(STEVE DAFOE 2009)

VERSE 1:
YOU WERE ONCE THE BEST THING
BUT NOTHING LASTS FOREVER, DOES IT?

NEVER THOUGHT THIS LOVE WOULD QUIT
BUT I GUESSED THAT YOU GOTTA KNOW
THAT IT'S TRUE , SO STARTS THE SORROW

YEAH GIRL IT'S TIME I'D BETTER GO, just go


CHORUS:

SO TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT ME BABY BABY
BECAUSE I'M REALLY DONE BABY JUST DONE
TAKE A LAST LOOK AT ME , CAN'T YOU SEE?
'CAUSE I'M GOING BABY, YEAH BABY




We really tried and tried to be satisfied

Until we have nothing left to give
So if spring is renewal, then fall is the loss

And that is the season of our love



THERE'LL BE LOVE AGAIN FOR YOU AND ME
SPRINGING UP WITHIN LIKE A FLOWER
MAYBE I'LL LOOK BACK A LITTLE WISER
BUT TODAY, THERE'S "JUST SOUR NO SWEET"
YEAH, NO SUGAR JUST SOME SOUR DEFEAT



SO TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT ME BABY BABY
BECAUSE I'M REALLY DONE BABY JUST DONE
TAKE A LAST LOOK AT ME , CAN'T YOU SEE?
'CAUSE I'M GOING BABY, YEAH BABY


YOU WERE ONCE THE BEST THING
I'M GOING BABY, YEAH BABY
