Jupiter’s Lament Lyrics
Gone, long gone
Blink and I'll be gone, gone, gone
Leave this world of wrong, wrong, wrong
Leave it far behind
And although my secret's gone
I'll try to carry on
If I must, I'll get along
Without you
Gone, long gone
Leave this world of wrong, wrong, wrong
Beyond the pale, beyond the dawn
Flee these mortal bonds
No one knows I can't be wrong
So I'll sing the same old song
I tried to be strong
For you
Why have you left me?
Amongst the tall trees
I know I gave her all I have
And I tied her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons
Tied her heart in ribbons
And bows
And I'm gone
Oh yes, I'm gone
And I'm lost without you
I'm lost within you
And I'm gone
So gone
Long gone
