Gone, Gone Away

I am a fool and a mighty man

The hearts of men tremble in my hand

I walk the line and I'm led astray

And now it's gone, gone, gone, it's gone away

You wear the collar, you pull the load

You still have miles of empty road

And should you stop, she rolls on by

'Cause now she's gone, gone, gone before your eyes

I breathed the fire, I took the oath

I gathered riches in the undergrowth

I took my brother for his last dime

And now it's gone, gone, gone for the rest of time

So here I stand, no place to turn

The bridge behind is on the burn

I'm unforgiving, I wear disdain

And now it's gone, gone, gone, I can't remain

I'm left to wander the barren track

I'll sell my sorrow, then steal it back

Yes, I'm a fool and a mighty man

And I'll be gone, gone, gone, I can promise that

Here I stand, no place to turn

The bridge behind is on the burn

I'm unforgiving, I wear disdain

'Cause now it's gone, gone, gone, it's gone away

Yeah, it's gone, gone, gone, it's gone away
