This song was written by Steve Diamond and Marv Green.
Every time I turn the conversation to something deeper
Than the weather I can feel you all but shuttin’ down.
And when I need an explanation for the silence you
Just tell me you don’t wanna talk about it now.
What you’re not saying is coming in loud
And clear we’re at a crossroads here
If I’m not the one thing you can’t stand to lose
If I’m not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don’t get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then I guess we’re done
Let’s not drag this on
Consider me gone
With you I’ve always been wide open like a window or an ocean.
There is nothing I’ve ever tried to hide.
So when you leave me not knowin’ where you’re goin’
I start thinkin’ that we’re lookin’ we’re lookin’ at goodbye.
How about a strong shot of honesty
Don’t you owe that to me
If I’m not the one thing you can’t stand to lose
If I’m not that arrow to the heart of you
If you don’t get drunk on my kiss
If you think you can do better than this then I guess we’re done
Let’s not drag this on
Consider me gone.
Consider me a memory.
Consider me the past.
Consider me a smile in an old photograph
Someone who used to make you laugh.
If I’m not the one thing you can’t stand to lose
If I’m not that arrow to the heart of you
Then I guess we’re done let’s not drag this on.
Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Consider me gone.
Just consider me gone.
