Lyrics

Long 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.
