TOO FAR GONE
Uli Reese and Michael Dukes


Sunshine, blue sky all the birds are singing
Hear the laughter bouncing down the street
Children playing, it’s a picture postcard
From my window this is what I see
I close the curtain cause inside I hurt
There will be no joy today
Without you there’s no one to turn to
No one whispering my name

And every time I think about your smile
I cry the tears it used to hide
All those nights I tried to hang on
Too far gone
Oh you’re too far gone

Somewhere someday when I’ve found somebody
To repaint the world I had with you
We will look back, yes we’ll have a fine laugh
Knowing that somehow I made it through
Hand in hand we’ll wander through an old town
We’ve seen in photographs
A perfect moment but the spell is broken
As the truth comes crashing back

Now every time I think about your smile
I cry the tears it used to hide
All those nights I tried to hang on
Too far gone
Oh you’re too far gone
You’re so gone
Too far gone
