Gone Forever Lyrics

I never told you this

Figured you might get pissed

It was back before

We ever kissed

There was a love affair

Pretended not to care

I wanted so much more

But it all ended there

Because you came along

Confusing feelings

Adding words into my song

Sent me reeling

How could this be wrong?

Cuz I don't see

Any part of myself left in me

In the blink of your eye

Gone forever

No question as to why

Whatsoever

I don't think you understand the strength in you

And I don't think you realize what you can do

Rewind at least a dozen years...

I often told you then

No model citizen

Needed to up my game if I was to be your man

So you bid your time

You kept my heart in mind

Despite proclivities

Christ! they undermined

But, then you came along

Confusing feelings

Singing the words to my song

Sent me reeling

How could this be wrong

Yea, cuz I don't see

Any part of the old me left in me

One blink of your eye

Gone forever

No question as to why

Whatsoever

I don't think you understand the strength in you

And I don't think you realize what you can do

Fast forward some years -who was it that allayed my fears?

As the days go by

I kept a closer eye

On what you mean to me

That you can't deny

I was someone other

A left 'er, leave 'er lover

Through you I came to be

Something more complete

I was always gloatin'

Insipid showboatin'

You showed me how to care

And how to balance, yeah

Because you came along

Cementing feelings

Putting words into my song

Oh most appealing!

How could this be wrong?

Cuz I don't see

Any part of the old me left in me

In the blink of your eye

Gone forever

No question as to why

Whatsoever

I don't think you understand the strength in you

And I don't think you realize what you can do

One bat of your eye

No question as to why

And I don't think you understand the strength in you

I don't think you realize just what you can do

In the blink of your eye

Gone forever

In the blink of your eye

Gone forever
