Foregone by The Decemberists Lyrics
Dear, arise and say it's a honey
All this light that daybreak brings
And the ancient bends that brung me
To the bed where your sleepy sings
And we had agreed on Henry
Long before a flutter felt
And so it will be 'til memory
Makes a shadow of ourselves
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
But it's foregone
It's foregone
Can it be that this is given
This awaking from a long dark night
Of a soul so on and wizened
Sleep away to set to rights
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
But it's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
Carry on
Oh, carry on
All this light that daybreak brings
And the ancient bends that brung me
To the bed where your sleepy sings
And we had agreed on Henry
Long before a flutter felt
And so it will be 'til memory
Makes a shadow of ourselves
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
But it's foregone
It's foregone
Can it be that this is given
This awaking from a long dark night
Of a soul so on and wizened
Sleep away to set to rights
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
But it's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
All would lead to believe that it's not
And the reach and the wrecks and the wrongs
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
It's foregone
Carry on
Oh, carry on
