Long Gone (Rock Version)
[Verse 1]
Baby
I used to watch your flowers grow
Now it's raining and all your petals turned to stone
I've been praying
Turn around and see my rose but you've faded
You let me down, now it's time to go

[Chorus]
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be too late, our time is done
That's why I'm long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be too late, our time is done

[Verse 2]
Baby
I think you got your timing wrong
All this hating Is blowing this high we're riding on
And it's crazy
To think that I could be reborn If you saved me
But now it's too late, and we'll nevеr know
[Pre-Chorus]
You're like diamond and I'm like glass
Likе oil and water we always clash
Sometimes my confessions are hard for me
I'll tell you now I'm setting you free

[Chorus]
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be too late, our time is done
That's why I'm long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be too late, our time is done

[Bridge]
With broken wings, I can't fly
Girl, I'm gonna need you to save me
Angel of mine
With broken wings, I can't fly (With broken wings, I can't fly)
Girl, I'm gonna need you to save me
Angel of mine
With broken wings, I can't fly (With broken wings, I can't fly)
Girl, I'm gonna need you to save me
Angel of mine
With broken wings, I can't fly (With broken wings, I can't fly)
Girl, I'm gonna need you to save me
[Chorus]
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone
It may be too late, our time is done
That's why I'm long gone (With broken wings, I can't fly)
You need to let me fly alone
That's why I'm long gone, long gone (I can't fly)
You need to let me fly alone
With broken wings I can't fly
