The Strypes – Now She's Gone lyrics

Afraid it’s far too late but
She’s past the sell-by-date and I’m
Struggling to estimate my
Time left here
She used to be my queen my
Always and everything but I
Cut all of my ties clean Henry the 8th

And I’ll tell everybody
That I’m the shadow of the shadow that I used to be
And I can’t love her
So she won’t love me now she’s gone
And three cheers for the glorious dead
She chose life and I chose death instead
And I just cant wait till I lay my head now she’s gone
Now she’s gone

Ain’t much for me to say she’s
Better off on her way 'cause I
Don’t need no last hooray I’ll exit cold
And I ain’t gonna call her back
I’m on the other side of the map and I’ve
Found treasure in every trap
Swimming in fools gold

And I’ll tell everybody
That I’m the shadow of the shadow that I used to be
And I can’t love her so she won’t love me yeah she’s gone
Three cheers for the glorious end she chose life and I chose death instead
And I just cant wait till I lay my head now she’s gone

I’m drowning in fools gold now you’re gone
And I’ve just lost my soul for sure
Now you’re gone

Gone now you’re gone
Gone yeah she's gone
Gone yeah you’re gone
Gone now yeah you're gone
