It's Gone from Silver Acoustics by Silver Acoustics

The stories that I never told,
Will keep me warm when I am old,
Far away forgotten few,
The summer days just me and you,
No-one could ever know,
The highest point, the far meadow.

But it's gone, they tore it down,
They built a housing estate where we,
Made love on the floor,
Of the forest that was there before.

Things change yes I know,
But the places that we loved where we used to go,
It's all concrete jungle, urban sprawl,
It's like come and get now come a real free for all.
We're not alone, no never more,
You've got every kind of salesman going door to door

And it's gone, they tore it down,
They built a shopping mall where we,
Made love on the floor,
Of the meadow that was there before.

And when it's done it's really gone,
No plants no trees just your shopping fun,
A hundred years, or maybe more,
But you'll tear it down just to open a store,
It's never reversed you can't take it back,
You want your big open roads for your Cadillacs.

But it's gone, they tore it down,
They built a housing estate where we,
Made love on the floor,
Of the meadow that was there before.

It's not a joke, you'll never know,
the stream in the forest where it used to flow
down through the village, passed the plough and hoe
where you see the factories and the smoke that they blow

And it's gone, they tore it down,
They built a housing estate where we,
Made love on the floor,
Of the meadow that was there before.

Gone, they tore it down,
Yeah, yeah it's gone, (made love on the floor),
Long long gone, it's gone,
Gone, it's gone,
It's long long gone it's gone,
That's what I'm talking about! Yeah!
