My Song (Too Far Gone)

He was just another boy from Georgia Playing in a rock 'n' roll band I was living in L.A., in a Hollywood way Then I met him and he loved me We got married Now he's too far gone to hold me Too far gone, he doesn't wanna know me Too far gone, and he doesn't really know No, he'll never get to know his son Now I know that I'm a stubborn woman But I knew he was a passionate man Though our feelings were intense Our problems were immense But we tried hard and we held on But we let it go Now he's too far gone to hold me Too far gone, he doesn't wanna know me Too far gone, and he doesn't really know God, he'll never get to know his son It's hard to cut it loose But only one man holds the key What I did to many men Was finally done to me Now I'm tryin' not to fall to pieces But I think about him every day When I lay down by his side Tears of love would fill my eyes Oh, I loved him and he loved me But we let it go Too far gone, too far gone And he doesn't really know God, he'll never get to know his son, his son
