You're Gone

Getting lost in all the small talk
Leading to one thing and then to another
Then all of a sudden
You're up and gone like the wind
Never to be seen or heard from again
I wish I could have stopped you in time
I would have shown you who I can be
I know now that it's too late
And you're on to bigger and better things
I know if I had one more moment with you
I would have held you tight

Now this is goodbye
It doesn't get any easier than this
I wish I had one more moment
I would have loved you more
Now I'm standing here looking like a damn fool
I need to realize that once you're gone
Then you're gone

If it were another moment in time
I would have told you just how I felt
But it doesn't matter anyway
You already made up your mind
There's nothing I can say or do to change your mind
You're so hell bent to leave
Why don't you just go on
I know that I'm a moment too late
And you're off to bigger and better things
If I could hear your voice again
I would have said what's unspoken

Now this is goodbye
It doesn't get any easier than this
I wish I had one more moment
I would have loved you more
Now I'm standing here looking like a damn fool
I need to realize that once you're gone
Then you're gone

Now I'm standing here looking like a damn fool
I need to realize that once you're gone
Then you're gone
