Good and Gone
Good and Gone: A Hallelujah Journey Through Life
Lyrics
Can you see the way before us?
Questioning the visibility of the path ahead.
Sing hallelujah, the joy we found
Celebrating and expressing joy, singing praises.
Can you see the pain beneath us?
Acknowledging hidden pain or struggles.
Sing hallelujah, lay it in the ground
Encouraging to celebrate and bury the pain.
When I'm gone, good and gone
Anticipating departure and emphasizing being "good and gone."
Don't you grieve, just sing along
Advising not to grieve but to join in singing.
Nah, nah, nah nah, nah nah ah ah
Repeating the idea of being "good and gone" with a rhythmic chant.
Nah, nah nah, nah good and gone
-Good and gone good and gone
Reiterating the state of being "good and gone."
When you walk among the gravestones
Describing a scene of walking among gravestones.
See hallelujah, it's all around
Noticing that the celebration (hallelujah) is present everywhere.
When you feel the chill in your bones
Sensing a cold feeling in the bones, attributing it to the omnipresent celebration (hallelujah).
It's hallelujah that you have found
Connecting the chill to the discovery of hallelujah.
When I'm gone, good and gone
Repeating the anticipation of being "good and gone."
Don't you grieve, just sing along
Reiterating the advice not to grieve but to sing.
Oh ah, nah, nah nah, nah nah ah ah
Continuing the rhythmic chant of "nah" and emphasizing being "good and gone."
Nah, nah nah, nah ah ooh ooh ooh
-Oh ah, nah, nah nah, nah nah ah ah
-Nah, nah nah, nah ah ooh ooh ooh
-Nah, nah nah, nah ah ooh ooh ooh
-Nah, nah nah, nah good and gone
-Good and gone good and gone
Reaffirming the state of being "good and gone."
