Knox – Going, Going, Gone Lyrics

Going, Going, Gone Lyrics by Knox, tells the story of a man coming to terms with the sudden departure of a lover. The lyrics paint a picture of heartbreak and regret as he finds a lipstick message on his bathroom mirror, signaling that she has left for the West Coast. He reflects on their relationship, wondering if she was ever truly his or just a fleeting presence, like a shooting star.

The chorus uses metaphors like birds, planes, and angels to express how quickly she vanished from his life. He struggles with feelings of loss and missed opportunities, realizing too late that she was the best he ever had. The outro reinforces her complete absence, emphasizing that she is “so far gone” with no intention of returning.

Overall, the song captures the pain of losing someone abruptly and the lingering regret of not holding on when given the chance.

Going, Going, Gone Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Lipstick message on my bathroom mirror
Said, “By the time you read this, I’ll be West Coast bound”
I’m cooked, I guess she couldn’t get any clearer
No, I was nothing but the weight on her shoulders, I was holding her down

[Pre-Chorus]
She left no trace on this side of town
No goodbye kiss, no “see you around”
I’m still right here, both feet on the ground
Wonderin’ where you are now

[Chorus]
Like, is it a bird, is it a plane
Or is it an angel taking my heart away?
Because the second I know what I want
Oh, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone
Was she ever here? Was she ever mine?
Was she just a shooting star burning up in the night?
I could’ve given her all that I got
But I let her go and she’s going, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone


[Verse 2]
Oh, what a way to discover that we’re no good for each other
Woke up alone in these covers, I guess I’m just another sucker
I went to sleep, she left the key
Took everything except for me

[Pre-Chorus]
She left no trace on this side of town
No goodbye kiss, no “see you around”
I’m still right here, both feet on the ground
Wonderin’ where you are now

[Chorus]
Like, is it a bird, is it a plane
Or is it an angel taking my heart away?
Because the second I know what I want
Oh, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone
Was she ever here? Was she ever mine?
Was she just a shooting star burning up in the night?
I could’ve given her all that I got
But I let her go and she’s going, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone

[Bridge]
Now she’s the best I’ll ever get
And now I sleep with my regret
I watch her leave, and scream about the sky


[Chorus]
Like, is it a bird, is it a plane
Or is it an angel taking my heart away?
Because the second I know what I want
Oh, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone
Was she ever here? Was she ever mine?
Was she just a shooting star burning up in the night?
I could’ve given her all that I got
But I let her go and she’s going, she’s going, she’s going, she’s gone

[Outro]
She left no trace on this side of town
She’s so far, so far gone
No goodbye kiss, no “see you around”
She’s going, she’s going, she’s gone
