He was just another boy from Georgia
|
Playing in a rock and roll band
|
I was living in L.A. in a Hollywood way
|
Then I met him and he loved me
|
We got married
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
Now he's too far gone to hold me
|
Too far gone doesn't want to know me
|
Too far gone and he doesn't really know
|
No he'll never get to know his son
|
|
Now I know I'm a stubborn woman
|
And I knew he was a passionate man
|
Though our feelings were intense
|
Our problems were immense
|
But we tried hard and we held on
|
But we let it go
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
It's hard to cut it loose
|
But only one man holds the key to what
|
What I did to many men finally done to me
|
|
Now I'm trying not to fall to pieces
|
But I think about him every day
|
When I lay down by his side
|
Tears of love would fill my eyes
|
Ooh I loved him and he loved me
|
But we let it go
|
|
Too far gone, too far gone
|
And he doesn't really know
|
God, he'll never get to know his son
|
His son
|
