Too Far Gone Lyrics
Let it down, let it down
Let it down now
Let it down, let it down
Let it down now
Let it down, let it down
Let it down nowI always hate nostalgia
Living in the past
No use getting misty eyed
It all screamed by so fastWhen life was so much calmer
Severely buttoned up
The future rich in promises
Milk flowing from the cupI would spend those lazy days
Lying on a ridge
Watching girls in cotton dresses
Diving off the bridgeIs it too far gone?
Is it too far gone?
Is it too, too far
Too far gone?This was once the country
Now it's all the town
What was once the tallest spire
Is just a building crumbled downI'm living in a factory
That's a million dollar flat
I'm not looking for Arcadia
'Cause it's never coming backI would spend my childhood days
Lost in starry dreams
And now I watch my children
Just downloading them to screensLet it down, let it down, let it down
Let it down, let it down, let it down'Cause it's too far gone
Yeah it's too far gone
Yeah it's too, too far
Too far goneLet it down, let it down, let it downI'm lying in a garden
Carpets in the shade
Thinking of the future
And all the love we savedThe world outside is ugly
It's bitter and it's harsh
We each of us protect ourselves
We're hostage to the pastAnd it's too far gone
Yeah it's too far gone
I wonder where did we go wrong
And it's too, too far
And it's too, too far
Too far gone
