already gone.

Sometimes all it takes is the right music to speak what your heart cannot. I've been waiting several years for a song like this to come along and help me finish closing a very old wound.

The words alone do not do it justice...


Already Gone
by Kelly Clarkson

Remember all the things we wanted?
Now all our memories, they're haunted.
We were always meant to say goodbye.

Even with our fists held high,
It never would've worked out right.
We were never meant for do or die.

I didn't want us to burn out...
I didn't come here to hurt you, now I can't stop.

I want you to know that it doesn't matter where we take this road,
Someone's gotta go.
And I want you to know, you couldn't have loved me better-
But I want you to move on,
So I'm already gone.

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you want to cry.

It started with a perfect kiss
Then we could feel the poison set in.
Perfect couldn't keep this love alive...
You know that I loved you so, I love you enough to let you go.

I want you to know that it doesn't matter where we take this road,
Someone's gotta go.
And I want you to know, you couldn't have loved me better-
But I want you to move on,
So I'm already gone.

I'm already gone, already gone...
You can't make it feel right, when you know that it's wrong.
I'm already gone, already gone...
There's no moving on, so I'm already gone.

Already gone, already gone, already gone...
Already gone, already gone, already gone...

Remember all the things we wanted?
Now all our memories, they're haunted.
We were always meant to say goodbye.

I want you to know that it doesn't matter where we take this road,
Someone's gotta go.
And I want you to know, you couldn't have loved me better-
But I want you to move on,
So I'm already gone.

I'm already gone, already gone...
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong.
I'm already gone, already gone...
There's no moving on, so I'm already gone.
