From the recording Already Gone
Lyrics
From the day that we began
I thought our love would last forever without end
I never knew
How soon love dies
I never told you no, I never even tried
But I’m already gone
I’ve been leaving you so slowly
That you never saw it coming
But I’m already gone
Been smiling through my tears
Didn’t have the heart to tell you
I’ve been gone for years
Fairy tales spin their lies
Make us believe that true love never fades or dies
Forever after happily
It’s a farce that I wanted to believe
But I’m already gone
I’ve been leaving you so slowly
That you never saw it coming
But I’m already gone
Been smiling through my tears
Didn’t have the heart to tell you
But I’ve been gone for years
If I tell you that nothing’s wrong
Will that somehow make it right
If I say that my love is strong
Will you believe my lie
‘Cause I’m already gone
I’ve been leaving you so slowly
That you never saw it coming
But I’m already gone
Been smiling through my tears
Didn’t have the heart to tell you
I’ve been gone for years
You speak of love
Of me and you
Sometimes you question if my love for you is true
You ask me if you’re losing me
I tell you “no” ‘cause it’s too late don’t you see
‘Cause I’m already gone
I’ve been leaving you so slowly that you never saw it coming
But I’m already gone
Been smiling through my tears
Didn’t have the heart to tell you
But I’ve been gone for years
I’ve been gone for years
I’ve been gone for years
