The Magnetic Fields - Always Already Gone lyrics

I tried hard to keep you
I needn't have tried it seems you'd decided
When did you decide?

So this is the last time i cry in the dawn
It seems you were always always already gone

You never were happy you had to be free
You took all the freedom you needed from me

Then you and your freedom
Flew thither and yon
You're free to be always always already gone

I couldn't have dreamed you
But, I might as well you leave me with only
A story to tell

But at the beginning our story is done
Because you were always always already gone



Always already gone
