Gone Just Like Everything (Solo)

An older song redone tonight, April 28, 2026. GONE JUST LIKE EVERYTHING What’s a man to do When his day is over And his blues are just a shadow on the sky Ain’t nothin’ really new Nothing you can do over Except to sit and wonder why Baby I’m scared to death Maybe I’ll count my breaths Until the night takes me away Puts me at peace With nothin’ over my shoulder Until it’s time for another day I’ve been here long enough To watch you getting older And the world cast its shadows on your eyes You think it’s getting cold I’ve seen it even colder, you know If you need this shoulder to cry In a thousand words or less Brother I do my best And I try to make it right Unaccustomed to this depth and you know I’m beginning to hedge my bets though Running out of time Soon you'll be gone just like everything Every wave upon the shore But you will fill my eyes Until that day I die when You won’t be back any more So what are you gonna do When the howlin’s over And the world just shrugs and goes its wicked way What if I said I knew Would you think it over Could you find the time of day Baby it don’t seem right Days just turn to night And everything is born to die But it's alright today, ‘cause Baby it’s all OK When we’re walkin’ side by side Soon you'll be gone just like everything Every wave upon the shore But you will fill my eyes Until that day I die when You won’t be back any more What’s a man to do When his day is over And his blues are just a shadow on the sky Ain’t nothin’ really new Nothing you can do over Except to sit and wonder why Baby I’m scared to death Maybe I’ll count my breaths Until the night takes me away Puts me at peace With nothin’ over my shoulder Until it’s time for another day
