Going Going Gone

[Verse 1]
It won't last forever
It's there and then it's gone
Burns out like fire would
Fades out like a song

[Chorus]
And I have no answers darling
It's neither right or wrong
But when the hammer comes down
It is going going gone

[Verse 2]
It's the wheel of fortune
It's the luck of the draw
It's funny how the people with the most
Are the ones who are reaching out for more

[Chorus]
There's no rhyme or reason darling
It's neither short or long
But when the hammer comes down
It is going going gone

[Verse 3]
Like sunshine on the ocean
You can't catch it in your hands if you try
Like waking from a dream that's fading
And the more that you chase it, the less you can taste it
'Til all you have's the echo of a song
For when the hammer comes down
It is going going going gone
