Lyrics
Dead And Gone
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I spent 15 years of my life in a spotlight
My home has a been a beat up travel van
When the crowd can hear the music
It gets easy to lose your plans
And we had some good times when the word was ours to plunder
And I'll admit we sure had some fun
But I didn't know it would be so hard to hold together
And staying number one
So I'll waste my time tomorrow on yesterday
Too proud to put it down and move on
Cause I lost myself holding onto memories
And grieving for a dream that's dead and gone
And for awhile we shared the stage with my heroes
They promised me they'd try to help us out
Well if you think you can keep things running on promises
Man it'll wear you out
So the last of us got homesick in the highlands
After half a million people in the band
And I came home just to find my house was empty
And here I am
And I'll waste my time tomorrow on yesterday
Too proud to put it down and move on
Cause I lost myself holding onto memories
And grieving for a dream that's dead and gone
And my wife and kids are half a million miles away
A little older now and it seems so lost for time
Ah they're just fine, but if I had a second chance
I would change her mind
But the motel lounge still lets me play on Mondays
Yeah but who wants to come here on Monday nights
And I gave up so much when I said that this was all I ever had
In my life
And I'll waste my time tomorrow on yesterday
Too proud to put it down and move on
Cause I lost myself holding onto memories
And grieving for a dream that's dead and gone
