Analysis of Gone



The wind carries me away
Upon the day I swore
To leave this bay
Of a forgotten shore

But your love I will keep
Burried until tomorrow
While the birds cheep
Of all my sorrow

Towards my burdened past
Of which I burn
Much too fast
WHile I yearn

Now stowed away
My heart can shine
Or slowly decay
Until you are mine

To keep forever
A promise to show
Or my heart will sever
And my blood will flow

From anger within
Causing all this pain
Soothing your skin
In abandoned rain
