Already Gone

(album: It Wasn't Perfect, But We Tried - 2022)

Maybe in my wildest dreams
I had a picket fence in front of me
I had a garden under a rainbow
And a front door painted in yellow
A table that was set for two
And you'd call to say you'll be home soon
In a house so full of our memories
I was so sure that's how it would be

But it all went wrong, I messed up
You say there's nothing left
But I'd do anything

So I'm trying my best to fix this, stood at the finish line
I know that it's way past saving, but I'm still gonna try
Both of us close to breaking, you tell me I can't go on
'Cause you can't chase after something when it's already gone

I've got a wall of empty photo frames
And a double bed that's always made
I've got a heart that's running on empty
And my head ain't quite where it should be
Where you wrote your name out in the dust
It's now a place that I won't ever touch
'Cause it will always be a reminder
Of the days when I was beside ya

'Cause, oh, it all went wrong, I messed up
You say there's nothing left
But I'd do anything

So I'm trying my best to fix this, stood at the finish line
I know that it's way past saving, but I'm still gonna try
Both of us close to breaking, you tell me I can't go on
'Cause you can't chase after something when it's already gone

It's already gone, no
It's already gone

I'm trying my best to mend this, this home is torn in two
But the blame is mine for the taking 'cause I did that to you
And with both of us close to breaking, you tell me I can't go on
'Cause you can't chase after something when it's already gone
It's already gone
