Going Going Gone
Lucy Dacus Song Lyrics

Daniel made a pass

We started flirting after class

Stealing hats and trading jackets

Locking lips and braces brackets

After dinner, before dark

We'd meet at the same bench in the park

Sweaty palms, averted eyes

Wasn't sure if he and I were going out.

Going out

Going out, ooh...

Going, going, out.

The sunset threw a tantrum

It wasn't ready to go just yet

Mother earth said, 'time for bed'

It resisted and the sky went red

The color filtered out

Like pulling teeth out of a cloud

The bloody battle ended

No, the sun can't break the habit of going down.

Going down

Going down, ooh...

Going, going, down.

Daniel in ten years

Grabbing asses, spilling beers

Another ten and he'll have a daughter

She'll grow up and he can't stop her

Back on the bench, making plans

Watching the day end hand in hand

I always had to be home by eight

My dad would kill me if I was late

I'll be going now.

Going now

Going now, ooh...

Going, going, now.

Going gone

Going gone

Going gone, ooh...

Going, going, gone.

'Cool, yeah that was the one I think'

'Yup that was great, that's what we were looking for. thanks guys!'

'Cool, wow! I am so happy. thank you everyone for doing this. I owe y'all whatever you ask of me for the rest of my life'.
