Going, Going, Gone
Swept Away: Unraveling the Mystery of Love
Lyrics
At first I thought it was the moonlight shining through the mist
Initially believed the romantic atmosphere was created by moonlight piercing through mist.
Cause after all a kiss is just a kiss or so I thought
Considered a kiss to be a simple act, but this perception is about to change.
But I must have been wrong
Realized an error in initial assumptions.
It could have been the music cause it sounded so sweet
Suspected the enchantment could be attributed to the captivating music.
Something sure was sweeping me off of my feet
Felt overwhelmed, as if something extraordinary was sweeping away rational thoughts.
All night long, it sure was strong
The influence persisted strongly throughout the night.
Before I knew what was going on, I was going, going, gone
Without awareness, found himself deeply immersed in a captivating experience.
I suppose it could have the perfume from a honey-suckle vine
Considered the possibility of being influenced by the scent of a honeysuckle vine.
Something sure was driving me out of my mind
Felt driven to the edge of sanity by an unknown force.
But I should have known all along
Realized the cause was evident all along.
It was your love and it was so strong
Confirmed that the overpowering force was love, intense and unyielding.
I was going, going, gone
Experienced the profound impact of love, causing a sense of departure.
It might have been the magic written in the stars
Suggested the possibility of magic inscribed in the stars influencing the events.
Some gypsy might have read it somewhere in the cards
Mentioned the idea of a mystical prediction, perhaps through cards read by a gypsy.
It really doesn't matter cause whatever it was
Emphasized that the specific cause doesn't matter, only the outcome is significant.
It led me straight to your arms
The mysterious force led the person straight into the embrace of a loved one.
First I thought it was the moonlight shining through the mist
Reiterated the initial perception of moonlight creating a romantic atmosphere.
After all a kiss is just a kiss or so I thought (so I thought)
Repeated the notion that a kiss is just a kiss, highlighting the evolving perspective.
But I must have been wrong
Acknowledged a previous misunderstanding.
Before I knew what was going on
Realized the transformative experience before full comprehension.
I was going, going, gone
Caught up in the intense emotions, feeling a sense of departure or change.
Going, going, gone
Reiterated the theme of departure or change, emphasizing the finality of the experience.
Going, going, gone
