Joseph Arthur - Gypsy Faded lyrics

I am ready and I'm letting go now That is what I am doing That's what this turmoil has been all about That and the rumors of who you've been screwing I'm not burying my head in the sand I say this with peace love and understanding I'm glad you're in some kinda peaceful place now But darling you were definitely the last one of us standing When you Gypsy faded on us I needed to say goodbye But you Gypsy faded on us I guess there's always a chance of us coming back together But that seems unlikely in this kind of weather I just never saw it coming so forgive me the shock Of becoming a stranger walking down my own block I'm getting over it though you are fading from my view And soon I hope you will be gone as I have been gone for you I do however want to say that I wish you the best Past the anger of betrayal and the need to second guess When you Gypsy faded on us I needed to say goodbye But you Gypsy faded on us I don't feel you anymore We were holding phantom hands I don't feel you anymore We were holding phantom hands I don't want stir this all back up But leavin' in Vegas proved extra painful for me It's easier to deal with things like this when they're clear Whereas 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 But this time you didn't come back So I guess you weren't mine I still love you of course But I let go of the need When you Gypsy faded on us I needed to say goodbye But you Gypsy faded on us When you Gypsy faded on us I needed to say goodbye But you Gypsy faded on us
