Gone

you forgot where it began
but I will show you how it ends
you forgot where it began
but trust me
I will show you how it ends

and once you know the end
you cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
'cause this is it

you forgot where, how and when
but it's like the fall of man
one could say that it began
with just one wrong you can't amend

and once you know the end
you cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
and this is it
and we can't take back
all the things we've said
'cause what is done is done

you can't know what courage is
unless you've felt discouraged too
I thought this whole thing through
and couldn't find a way
so this is me
losing heart again

and once you know the end
we cannot just pretend
that what was gone was already gone
and this is it
this truly is it
and we can't take back
all the things we've said
'cause what is done is done

and we can't, we won't take back
all the things we said
cause what is done and what is gone is gone
no, we can't, we won't take back
all the things we said
and just like that, just like that, you're gone
