Inishmore - Gone lyrics

rate me

I'm staggering through the empty lane<br />

Night has fallen and the cold increases my pain.<br />

My mind is shattered and my soul a wasted land, <br />

For I can't remember who I am.<br />

We were together for so many years that I never thought it would end<br />

But it's hard to realize you won the world when you hold it in your hand.<br />

I never thought of what a treasure I was allowed to keep with me<br />

Until it slipped away, through my fingers like a dolphin to the sea.<br />

<br />

[Chorus]<br />

In my lonely nights I think of you, <br />

Memories keep running through and through<br />

And when tears are filling up my eyes, <br />

I realise beside another she now lays<br />

<br />

To little time and empty phrases<br />

Our ways have gone through changes<br />

Now they've split. Alone we go<br />

But I'll be there for you I hope you know<br />

Like a flower that is growing towards the sun, <br />

Like every night is waiting for a dawn to come, <br />

My heart is longing for your warmth and love<br />

And one day I'll have you back it must come off<br />

<br />

[Chorus]<br />

<br />

My mind is not full of hate<br />

I wish you luck it might be our fate<br />

I know he'll treat you as good<br />

As I never could.<br />

I hope he's good enough for you<br />

But still you must know that I Love you.<br />

<br />

[Chorus]
