Story Behind The Song

JUST A BREAKUP SONG.

Song Description

HE'S REPLAYING IN HIS HEAD ALL THE EVENTS THAT LED UP TO THE MOMENT WHEN HE DROVE HER AWAY. WHAT DID HE DO? WHAT DID HE SAY? WHAT SHOULD HE HAVE DONE? HE KNOWS HIS ANSWERS WERE ALL WRONG. AT THE CORE THOUGH HE KNOWS THERE WAS MORE TO IT THAN THAT, AND REALIZES THAT HIS HOPES FOR DREAMS MIGHT BE LOST FOREVER.

Lyrics

I'M SITTING BY MYSELF A BUSTED EMPTY SHELL
WONDERING WHICH WAY TO TURN
KNOWING ALL OF MY ANSWERS WOULD BE WRONG;
THERE WAS A GIRL, MY ENTIRE WORLD
THE KIND YOU CAN DREAM UPON
BUT THERE'S NO SENSE DREAMING NOW
SHE'S ALREADY GONE;

CHORUS

ALREADY GONE, LIKE A SHOOTING STAR IN THE NIGHT,
ALREADY GONE, SHE JUST WALKED OUT OF MY LIFE;
AND THERE'S NO SENSE MOVING ON,
WHEN YOUR ANSWERS ARE ALL WRONG
THERE'S NO SENSE DREAMING NOW
SHE'S ALREADY GONE.

LOVE'S A FUNNY THING, A CRAZY SCHEME
YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU GOT TILL ITS GONE
THEN YOU FIND YOURSELF SITTING ALL ALONE
YOU'LL SWEAR TO FIX WHAT'S WRONG,
IT'S TAKING WAY TOO LONG, SEARCHING FROM DUSK TO DAWN
AND THERE'S NO GETTING PAST THE FACT
SHE'S ALREADY GONE.
ALREADY GONE, NEW NORMAL YOU REALLY SUCK
ALREADY GONE, I CAN''T TELL WHICH END IS UP,
BUT IF YOU FIND THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE,
HOLD ON, AND HOLD ON TIGHT
BECAUSE THERE'S NO SENSE DREAMING WHEN THAT GIRL IS GONE.

DON'T KNOW WHAT I SAID, WHAT I DID,
OR WHAT I SHOULD HAVE DONE
EXCEPT THAT ALL OF MY ANSWERS WERE WRONG
IF I COULD FIX IT NOW, IT DOESN'T MATTER ANYHOW, SOMETHINGS CANT BE UNDONE
AND THERE'S NO CHANGING THE FACT SHE'S ALREADY GONE.
ALREADY GONE, TIME TO GET IT THROUGH MY THICK HEAD
ALREADY GONE, IT WAS MORE THAT WHAT I SAID; IF YOU FIND A GIRL TO DREAM ON, TREAT HER RIGHT, NEVER WRONG.
CUZ THERE'S NO SENSE DREAMING WHEN SHE IS GONE.
HEY MAN THERE'S NO SENSE DREAMING NOW,
SHE'S ALREADY GONE.
