Gone
Once I was so full of wonder
Now all I ever do is sit and ponder
Where it has gone?
Where it has gone?
Once my river was so deep and wide
The grass was growing on each side
It has gone from me now
And the grass has withered and turned brown
Don’t you see?
It has gone like a lover from a one-night stand
Gone like money from a gambling hand
Gone like a last cigarette burning straight down to the fingertips
It has gone like a last leaf on a tree in October
Gone like my hopes and dreams when I’m sober
Gone like that beautiful smile
On your red rosy lips
Once your eyes shone like two diamonds
Now there’s hardly any chance
They will do again
Maybe for another man
On a field of forgiveness
There’s a burial mound
Where everything that we had
Lies deep in the ground
Beyond the reach of my serenade
And the soil is too hard form my shovel’s blade
It has gone like a lover from a one-night stand
Gone like money from a gambling hand
Gone like a last cigarette burning straight down to the fingertips
It has gone like a last leaf on a tree in October
Gone like my hopes and dreams when I’m sober
Gone like that beautiful smile
On your red rosy lips
Everything is gone gone gone
Like this lover from a one-night stand
Like this money from a gambling hand
Gone like a last cigarette burning straight down to my yellow fingertips
It has gone like a spark from a dying ember
Gone like the days I don’t remember
Gone like that beautiful smile
On your red rosy lips
The second EP from Northern Irish singer-songwriter Bea Stewart runs from gentle folk to pillowy pop ballads, all perfectly executed. Bandcamp New & Notable Apr 15, 2024
