Mick Jagger Lyrics

Album: Goddess in the Doorway

Too Far Gone Lyrics

Let it down let it down let it down now,

let it down let it down let it down now

let it down let it down let it down now....

I always hate nostalgia

Living in the past

No use getting misty eyed

It all screamed by too fast

When life was so much calmer

Severely buttoned up

The future rich in promises

Milk flowing from the cup

I would spend those lazy days 

lying on a ridge

Watching girls in cotton dresses

Diving off the bridge

Its too far gone

its too far gone

Its too too far gone

Too far gone

This was once the country

Now its all the town

What was once the tallest spire

Is just a building crumblin' down

And I'm living in a factory

Its a million dollar flat

I'm not looking for arcadia

Cause its never coming back

I would spend my childhood days

Lost in starry dreams

And now watch my children 

Just downloading them to screens

Let it down, let it down, let it down

Let it down, let it down, let it down

Cause its too far gone

Too far gone (continue)

Yeah its too far gone

Yeah its too too

Too far too far gone

Let it down, let it down, let it down

Im lying in the garden

Carpets in the shade

Thinking of the future

And all the love we saved

The world outside is ugly

Its bitter and its harsh

We each of us protect ourselves

We're hostage of the past

And its too far gone

Its too far gone

I wonder where did we go wrong

And its too too far 

And its too too far 

Too far gone
