Gone

You've gotta face the facts some time and it's already been eight weeks
Since you heard those fatal words that drained the colour from your cheeks
And everybody knows, that times like these are hard
'Cause along the way we've all been dealt our share of shitty cards
And I'll tell you what if you don't stop this living in the past
You'll soon find your todays are gone, it can happen all too fast
The world will keep on turning 'round in spite of your despair
So don't you hide, take a step outside, and a deep breath of fresh air

'Cause she's gone. Yeah she's long gone
She flew away, so far away, and didn't tell no one
Yeah she's gone, oh she's gone, gone, gone boy
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

I can see that you've been crying, but it's time to dry your eyes
I know it hurts, but it makes it worse to sit and agonise
Over things you could've done, and things you wish you'd said
Days you could've skived off work and whiled away in bed
But anyhow I'll tell you now, it wouldn't do you any good
To turn back time and try to change the past boy, even if you could
Sometimes life will have its way, no matter what you do
Accept that and you're on track, you've almost made it through

But she's gone. Yeah she's long gone
She flew away, so far away, and didn't tell no one
Yeah she's gone, oh she's gone, gone, gone boy
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone

Oh she's gone. Yeah she's long gone
She flew away, so far away, and didn't tell no one
Yeah she's gone, oh she's gone, gone, gone boy
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, oh
She's gone. Yeah she's long gone
She flew away, so far away, and didn't tell no one
Yeah she's gone, oh she's gone, gone, gone boy
She's gone, gone, gone, gone, gone
