Mary Chapin Carpenter - Chasing Whats Already Gone[00:00:00]

There's a big white house on a leafy street[00:00:26]

On a summer's day in 1963[00:00:31]

A station wagon's parked in the drive[00:00:38]

With dents in the fender and wood on the side[00:00:44]

There's kids and dogs in instamatic hues[00:00:50]

Squinting hard in the sun[00:00:53]

Not just yet but one day too[00:00:57]

They'll be chasing what's already gone[00:00:59]

You grow up tall and you grow up tough[00:01:15]

Try to never admit not feeling good enough[00:01:21]

They tell you find your passion then you'll find your way[00:01:27]

I'm just trying to make it unscathed through every day[00:01:33]

And it seems to happen nearly over night[00:01:39]

Life shows you who you've become[00:01:42]

When there's no more mystery in the fading light[00:01:45]

You're just chasing what's already gone[00:01:49]

Like the line that spells the far horizon[00:02:05]

Moving with you as fast as you can run[00:02:12]

Half your life you pay it no attention[00:02:17]

The rest you can't stop wondering[00:02:21]

What you should have done[00:02:25]

Instead of chasing what's already gone[00:02:27]

I saw my father in a dream last night[00:03:20]

He was smiling and saying you're gonna be alright[00:03:25]

And this morning I stared back at myself[00:03:31]

Feeling as empty as I've ever felt[00:03:38]

But I keep on going and I hope I've learned[00:03:44]

More of what's right than what's wrong[00:03:47]

It's ashes and roses and time that burns[00:03:50]

When you're chasing what's already gone[00:03:53]

Ashes and roses and hearts that break[00:03:57]

I tried so hard to be strong[00:03:59]

It may be my worst but not my first mistake[00:04:02]

Chasing what's already gone[00:04:07]
