[Verse 1]
So what if it's breaking my heart at the root?
Something that could happen to anyone, I suppose
Never any comfort to get from the truth
From knowing the part of this person that no one knows
So we just cry
With hopelessness
We're making such a mess

[Chorus]
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it

[Verse 2]
It's not that I’m frightened of being alone
It's just that I know what a burden this grief can be
Everything happens for something, I know
Can't understand for the moment what this could mean
That love is gone
That love is blind
That love is so unkind

[Chorus]
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
[Bridge]
Nobody wants to be happier more than me
Nobody wants to be happier more than I do
But happiness
I must confess
I don't have

[Chorus]
(Can't you see what you've done, it's long gone)
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
(Can't you see what you've done, it's long gone)
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
It's long gone, buddy, now
Run and go after it
(Can't you see what you've done, it's long gone, it's dead and gone)
