...And She Was Gone Lyrics

And she was gone but like fine wine she stayed

Mature in the mind, a vintage for days

And she was gone but I never ever knew her

Which is lucky I guess, so maybe less is best

And she was gone – the moment I turned my head

My universe halved, my dreams left un fed

And she is well, candle in her eye

Angel in her face, admirer in her sky

And she was gone

And she was gone off to a distant land

Yet in my mind her and I stand

Upon the shore of what could be

Her footprints lead towards the sea

Inland I go trying to think twice

I palm my face and roll the dice

And there she is standing there for me

I turn away, turn back and see

And she was gone

And she was gone – is love like this?

Forever chasing only to miss

Can't seize the moment, grab the day

My indecision paves my way

If I could change one single day

It would be when you first came my way

Background no more, barriers aside

I'd close my eyes and you'd be mine

And I'd be gone
