Brandi Carlile - Gone

Life is too short to waste all your time
Running too quickly to the finish line
Time is a track that's ready and set
And the longer you live, the closer you get to being

Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, the sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn and then they forget

Ooh-ooh-ooh
Do, do, do-do, do, do, do-do, yeah

There's no guarantees or promise of wealth
When you're only allowed so much time on the shelf
Time isn't money, it's only a lie
Because everything lost can be found
But you're time when you're

Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, the sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn and then they forget

Ooh-ooh-ooh

So live in doubt, live in fear
And you might live forever
Or live it up and watch your back
And you might live for better

Do, do, do-do, do, do, do-do, do, do, do-do

Gone, gone like the evening
Sun, the sun when it sets
Gone, gone like the darkness
At dawn and then they forget

Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
