A World Gone By
Unveiling Deception: A World Gone By in Blake Rose's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
You had me wrapped around your finger
You had complete control over me.
Like the ring you always wanted
Similar to a coveted ring, you desired me strongly.
Guess I never wondered why
I never questioned the reasons behind your actions.
You, you’d make us candle lighted dinners
You used to create romantic atmospheres with candlelit dinners.
When that cologne would used to linger
The lingering scent of your cologne reminds me of the past.
Always thought it must be mine
I always believed that everything was meant for me.
So blind for you baby
I was oblivious and infatuated with you, baby.
I’ve been all this time, honey all this time
I've spent a considerable amount of time being blindly devoted to you.
So don’t cry for me baby
Don't shed tears for me, baby.
Open up your eyes, it’s a world gone by
Realize the truth; we are now living in a bygone world.
Such a hold on me as I sink into the river,
Your influence over me is strong as I metaphorically sink into a river.
Try to wash away the picture, try to leave it all behind
Attempting to wash away memories and leave them behind.
Fooled me into your happy ever after
You deceived me into believing in a false "happily ever after."
As I peel away the plaster thinking how the hell was I
As I remove the plaster, I contemplate how deceived I was.
So blind for you baby?
Was I blind to your actions, baby?
I’ve been all this time, honey all this time
For a significant period, I remained devoted to you, honey.
So don’t cry for me baby
Don't cry for me now, baby.
Open up your eyes, it’s a world gone by
Wake up and realize that we're living in a world that has passed.
Ooh ooh ooh (we’re living in a, we’re living in a, in a world gone by)
(Refrain) We're currently existing in a world that's gone by.
It’s a world gone by honey (hey we’re living in a)
This is a world that has passed, honey.
Ooh ooh ooh (Baby we’re living, we’re living, we’re living)
(Refrain) We're currently living in a world that has gone by.
It’s a world gone by
This is a world that has passed.
We’re living in a
(Refrain) We're currently existing in a world that's gone by.
We’re living a world gone by
We're living in a world that has passed.
We’re living in a
(Refrain) We're currently existing in a world that's gone by.
We’re living a world gone by
We're living in a world that has passed.
I’m so blind for you baby
I was blind in my devotion to you, baby.
I’ve been all this time
I've dedicated all this time to you.
Honey all this time
For a substantial period, honey, I remained devoted.
So don’t cry for me baby
Don't weep for me now, baby.
Open up your eyes
Wake up and see the reality; it's a world that has passed.
It’s a world gone by honey
This is a world that has gone by, honey.
Ooh ooh ooh
(Refrain) It's a world that has gone by.
It’s a world gone by
This is a world that has passed.
Ooh ooh ooh
(Refrain) It's a world that has gone by.
It’s a world gone by
This is a world that has passed.
