I 'm ready and I'm lettin' go now
T hat is what I am doing
T hat is what this turmoil h as been about
T hat and the rumours of w ho you've been screwing
I 'm not burying my h ead in the sand
I say this with peace love a nd understanding
I 'm glad you're in some kind of p eaceful place now
B ut darling you were definitely t he last one of us standing
W hen you gip sy faded on us
I needed t o say goodbye
B ut you gips y faded on us
I guess there's always a chance of us coming back together
B ut that seems unlikely i n this kind of weather
I just never saw it coming s o forgive me the shock
O f becoming a stranger w alking down my own block
I 'm getting over it tho' y ou are faded from my view
A nd soon I hope you will be gone a s I've been gone for you
I do however wanna say t hat I wish you the best
P ast the anger of betrayal and the need to second guess
W hen you gip sy faded on us
I needed t o say goodbye
B ut you gips y faded on us
I don't feel yo u anymore
W e were holding phantom h ands
I don't feel yo u anymore
W e were holding p hantom hand s
I don't want to stir this all b ack up
But leaving it in vague has proved too painful for me
It's easier to to deal with things like thi s when they are clear
Where as once I was blind I can finally see
And like that old saying goes when you let your bird fly
If she comes back to you she's really yours and free
Well this time you didn't come back so I gu ess you weren't mine
I still love you of course but I let g o of the need
W hen you gip sy faded on us
I needed t o say goodbye
B ut you gips y faded on u
