The Lyrics of Terry Hubbard

Gone

written 1980 © 1980 - 2006 by T. Hubbard

I’m sorry children, there’s nothing left for you, 

we used it all, and now it’s gone.

I’m sorry sister, I cannot lie for you 

but you’ll find out before too long.

I’m sorry brother, I cannot die for you, 

even though your wars keep movin’ on.

They’ve been goin’ on so long 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

And it’s been goin on so long, 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

I’m sorry mother, I did my best for you, 

tried not to spoil your sacred ground,

and I’m sorry Father, I tried to tell the truth

but there were few ears to hear the sound.

And it’s been goin on so long, 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

It’s been goin on so long, 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

I’m sorry people, there’s nothing left for you, 

you had it all but now it’s gone.

There’s no tomorrow, no more yesterday, 

just dyin’ ripples in a pond,

They’ve been goin on so long, 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

It’s been goin on so long, 

there’s no more time to right the wrong.

No more time, no more time to right the wrong.

Had it all, but now it’s gone.
