(written by Don Schlitz and Terry Radigan)



I've played it over in my head

Thought about the words you said

Laid awake in my bed

It's gone, gone, gone



I've tried to make it make some sense

How it came and how it went

It's still the same damn consequence

It's gone, gone, gone



Love shouldn't lie to me

Love couldn't lie to me

Love wouldn't lie to me

But it did



People come and people go

I put on a real good show

How I do it, I don't know

It's gone, gone, gone



It's all hanging by a thread

I try to see a day ahead

I only see the past instead

It's gone, gone, gone



Love shouldn't lie to me

Love couldn't lie to me

Love wouldn't lie to me

But it did



And though

I know

I'll survive



Love shouldn't lie to me

Love couldn't lie to me

Love wouldn't lie to me

But it did

But it did
