Goin' 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.
There's a lighthouse in the harbor
Giving guidance with it's light
But, I had no one to return to
As I wandered through the night
From the first time that I saw you
Standing silent by the shore
I knew my search was over
And I would look for love no more
Deep in the waters of love I am falling
Sinking like a stone
Deep in my heart I can hear love callin'
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
There's a ship on the horizon
Makin' it's way against the wind
From the place where I stand watching
I swear my ship is coming in
Deep in the waters of love I am falling
Sinking like a stone
Deep in my heart I can hear love callin'
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
Deep in the waters of love I am falling
Sinking like a stone
Deep in my heart I can hear love callin'
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
Goin' once, goin twice, goin' gone
Deep in the waters of love I am falling
Sinking like a stone
Deep in my heart I can hear love callin'
Goin' once...
