I'm Gone

(album: I Don't Want To Miss A Thing - 1999)

Sitting at a table conversation
Me and my buddies
I follow what they're saying
100% of the daily events
But the minute she walks in my direction
Well, there goes my span of attention
One look in her eyes
And I'm gone for a ride.

I'm gone, I'm history
She gets the best of me
My mind drifts away
And instantly
I'm in another world
Wishing she was my girl
And nothing else matters at all
I'm gone like yesterday
To another time and place
One sweet smile and I get swept away
She gives me just enough to dream on
And I'm gone.

Yeah, I been coming in here for quite some time
I've got it all figured out in my mind
What I wanna say, yeah, today's the day
Oh here she comes, heart be steady
Play it cool, I got the words ready
She says hello, and away I go.

I'm gone, I'm history
She gets the best of me
My mind drifts away
And instantly
I'm in another world
Wishing she was my girl
And nothing else matters at all
I'm gone like yesterday
To another time and place
One sweet smile and I get swept away
She gives me just enough to dream on
And I'm gone.

I'm gone, I'm history
She gets the best of me
My mind drifts away
And instantly
I'm in another world
Wishing she was my girl
And nothing else matters at all
I'm gone like yesterday
To another time and place
One sweet smile and I get swept away
She gives me just enough to dream on
And I'm gone.

I'm gone...
