Too Far Gone
by: Coney HatchUsed to watch through my window
While the world passed me by
In an illusion of keeping the faith
Just keeping a lie
There might be things that I don't know
But one thing's perfectly clear
I knew the feeling of impotent rage
'Cause she was never near
And now it's too far gone
It's too far gone (it's over)
It's too far gone
Too far gone
Some say life is a gamble
Some say life's a dare
But I say life is just waiting for me
To come taste its' wares
There might be things that I don't know
But one thing I know for sure
No amount of throwing good after bad
Can ever hope to cure
A feeling too far gone
It's too far gone (it's over)
Too far gone
It's too far gone
Once I thought I heard music
Someone playing my song
Once the tune was familiar
But I heard it wrong
And now it's too far gone
It's oo far gone it's over
Too far gone
It's too far gone
Too far gone
It's too far gone (it's over)Too far gone
Ooh, it's too far gone
Ooh, oh
