Going Going Gone

Going, Going, Gone

Ive just reached a place
Where the willow dont bend
Theres not much more to be said
Its the top of the end
Im going
Im going
Im gone

Im closin the book
On the pages and the text
And I dont really care
What happens next
Im just going
Im going
Im gone

I been hangin on threads
I been playin it straight
Now, Ive just got to cut loose
Before it gets late
So Im going
Im going
Im gone

Grandma said, Boy, go and follow your heart
And youll be fine at the end of the line
All thats gold isnt meant to shine
Dont you and your one true love ever part

I been walkin the road
I been livin on the edge
Now, Ive just got to go
Before I get to the ledge
So Im going
Im just going
Im gone

@Tifa113  : ) thanks to Bob Dylan

I won't repeat all the praise though I share it all.

The singing is so swell and serves the text so well.

But, there may be more to say about that "place

where the willow don't bend".

If "It's the top of the end"

then the times have changed.

As ohiodixiechick2 said Bob himself is surprised

to see hatching new gems all the time.

As if oblivion was no more an option for anyone.

@42awww yea i never seem to be let down when searching Dylan songs , you should check out the demo of "mama you've been on my mind"...

[fhthbvisjfhfjkf]

why my generation listen jb ?? and those disney channel "artists" why i didn't born before??

Seek and you shall find! I've never heard this!!!!! I am always amazed when I hear Dylan's demos with just guitar like he is in his basement, then I listen to them so much I start to like them better than recordings. Like "Idiot Wind" Of the 3 versions I know, they are all different songs, tho I LOVE the venom of the HARD RAIN version. Thanks for posting.

DYLAN & HIS GUITAR......ALWAYS AMAZING & EITHER SWEET OR GUT WRENCHING! Such a beautiful haunting song. No one will ever deliver this song like it's masterful creator. He's definitely wearing his heart on his sleeve in "Going, Going, Gone." What a great line (Dylan always the visionary) ALL THAT'S GOLD ISN'T MEANNT TO SHINE! A life lesson in this amazing song!

Ialways thought, "Planet Waves" was Dylans finest hour, Not an ounce of fat on it.
