Verse 1

I'm ready and I'm lettin' go now

That is what I am doing

That is what this turmoil has been about

That and the rumours 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 kind of peaceful place now

But darling you were definitely the last one of us standing

Chorus

When you gipsy faded on us

I needed to say goodbye

But you gipsy faded on us

Verse 2

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 tho', you are faded from my view

And soon, I hope, you will be gone as I've been gone for you

I do, however, wanna say that I wish you the best

Past the anger of betrayal and the need to second guess

Chorus

When you gipsy faded on us

I needed to say goodbye

But you gipsy faded on us

Bridge

I don't feel you anymore

We were holding phantom hands

I don't feel you anymore

We were holding phantom hands

Verse

I don’t want to stir this all back up

But leaving it in vague has proved too painful for me

It’s easier to to deal with things like this 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 guess you weren’t mine

I still love you of course, but I let go of the need

Chorus

When you gipsy faded on us

I needed to say goodbye

But you gipsy faded on us
