I've thrown in a quick (big) change to the chorus' as suggested.

Caroline, mind takin' another peek?....all suggs welcomed.

Already Gone

What was I thinkin,’ fool?
What have I done?
One minute I’m drinkin’
the next I’m in love.
The room started spinnin,’ fast
an’ it wasn’t the rum,
even before she kissed me, man,
I was already gone

(Already gone)
Before she sat at the bar stool
(Already gone)
In that blue satin dress
(Already gone)
As our eyes met at the door
and our minds coalesced.
(Already Gone)
Before we talked for hours
(Already Gone)
Before that first kiss
(Already Gone)
I believe this is my first time
in a place like this.

It didn't take long,
I was already gone.


We took off like a rocket-ship
so I didn’t have time
To unload my cross to bear
and enjoy the ride.
My heart wasn’t ready,
for the love of my life.
If I could go back in time, right now,
and make it right…

I’d be…

(Already gone)
To get my heart ready
(Already gone)
To love like never before
(Already gone)
To undo the pain I caused
and be so much more
(Already Gone)
Holdin’ you forever
(Already Gone)
As long as time would allow
(Already Gone)
If I would have known back then
what I know right now…

it wouldn’t take long,
I’d be already gone

(Musical interlude)

She sent me an email,
She said “this is all wrong..”
“I don’t know who you are,
or where you've gone.”
Before I could answer her
and ask her to stay,
she blocked me on facebook
and was “single” by the end of the day.

She was

(Already gone)
Before I hit "Reply"
(Already gone)
with a message that read,
(Already gone)
“…meet me at “our place” tonight,
and we’ll start again.”

she was

(Already Gone)
“we’ll talk for hours”
(Already Gone)
and be together again..”
(Already Gone)
“..Maybe forever this time…”
“question mark”…..”send.”

Then I waited so long…..
But she was already gone.

Interlude to fade
