Desmond White - Gone Lyrics

I came for the American dream

All the shiny people in the magazines

Drink up the town til you overflow

Another pill and on with the show



Round this time of year it just gets hard

So for you this once i'll try to let my guard, down



Half the ones you loved are gone

Half the sun has come and shone

I'll wake, from a dream of you



V2

Cheated on myself with another man

Made him up tough with a plastic grin

Made him come and play every show with me

Everything's all right, nothing here to see



Well I see another Christmas come around

Oh Lord we've run ourselves into the ground, again



Now these days don't last so long

Now these hands don't feel so strong

All the ways to use me up are gone



The year is gone

Bring on the next one

Coz we got it all wrong

Can't take it back with a song



The year is gone

Bring the next one on

Coz we got it all wrong

Don't get much help from this song



The year is gone

I just want to move on

And finish this song

It just goes on and on



Just like we go on and on

Like we go on and on

We go and on

On and on
