A World Gone By

(album: A World Gone By - 2021)

You had me wrapped around your finger
Like the ring you always wanted
Guess I never wondered why
You, you'd make us candle lighted dinners
When that cologne would used to linger
Always thought it must be mine

So blind for you, baby
I've been all this time
Honey, all this time
So don't cry for me, baby
Open up your eyes
It's a world gone by

Such a hold on me
As I sink into the river
Try to wash away the picture
Try to leave it all behind
Fooled me
Into your happy ever after
As I peel away the plaster
Thinking how the hell was I

So blind for you, baby?
I've been all this time
Honey, all this time
So don't cry for me, baby
Open up your eyes
It's a world gone by

We're living in a
We're living in a
In a world gone by
We're living in a
Baby, we're living, we're living, we're living
In a world gone by

We're living in a
We're living in a
World gone by
We're living in a
We're living in a
World gone by

I'm so blind for you, baby
I've been all this time
Honey, all this time
So don't cry for me, baby
Open up your eyes
It's a world gone by, honey

It's a world gone by
It's a world gone by
