Chris Rea - It's All Gone lyrics

A careless heart ain't no good to no-one I was going back my friends to see Of what became of my childhood daydreams Of all the things that used to be To my surprise i stood alone I walked a river of a waking dream My father say 'know what you're thinking' I guess this old town seen better days It's all gone Ain't nothing for you here now Sail on You talk of change, something better Cutting down that big old tree There's flesh and blood in there somewhere But no matter what you just don't seem to see I walk your chambers, your empty halls I see you talking behind the doors My father say 'know what you're thinking' I guess this old town seen better days It's all gone Ain't nothing for you here now Sail on I'm sailing on, i'm running faster Than i ever run before My father say 'know what you're thinking' I guess this old town seen better days Sail on
