Gone

Found a picture of the two of us while we were out drinking You were smiling at the camera and I was blinking And as quick as any moment ever comes along There you were and now you're gone Like a rowboat song floating on downstream Maybe happiness and hurt in life is truly just a dream 'Cause like anything good that ever comes along It floats downstream until it's gone And as the crazy stops pacing between my ears The silence between us goes from days to weeks to months to years Boy, you keep trying you're gonna make it worse Until everything she says is cordial but terse Fighting for a heart that'll never bend It's like starring at love through a looking glass from the opposite end It was close to you before you looked along Now it's far away, and then it's gone And as the crazy stops pacing between my ears The silence between us goes from days to weeks to months to years Boy you keep trying you're gonna make it worse Until everything she says is cordial but terse Found a picture of the two of us while we were out drinking You were smiling at the camera and I was blinking And as quick as any moment ever comes along It floats downstream until it's gone It was close to you before you looked along Now it's far away and then it's gone Because like anything good that ever comes along You close your eyes and then it's gone
