David Crosby – Gone Forever lyrics

Gone Forever

(David Crosby, Jeff Pevar and James Raymond)

[Intro. (Electric Guitar and Percussion)]

The world will little know nor long remember
Why we fought these battles in the sky
And I am but a servant and a seeker
And I don't feel qualified to tell you why
Anyone should have to take another's life
Any father should find his children and his wife
Gone forever, gone forever
Gone forever, gone forever
The world will give us glimpses through the mist
Moonlit landscapes we can almost see
That feeling when you're alone that you've just been kissed
And you can fly and you shall be free
When we feel that if another page gets turned
We can save us if not one more book gets burned
Gone forever, gone forever
Gone forever, gone forever

[Instrumental (Piano, Electric and Acoustic Guitars)]

I have been walking here for quite a while
And I think I know the path where of I speak
It's a road going up a mountain
And it might not entirely reach the peak
But I know I don't have to know it all
I would just like to see not one more seeker fall
Gone forever, gone forever
Gone forever, gone forever
Gone forever, gone forever
Gone forever, gone forever

[Instrumental (Piano, Electric and Acoustic Guitars) ]

Da, da, da, da ...

[Instrumental Ending (Piano, Electric and Acoustic Guitars)]
