When Its Gone by The M Machine Lyrics

And I asked an old man,
"What do you see?"
He told me,

"I see a cardinal all alone,
I see a statue of a gnome,
I see a tree that's like a home,
Or close enough."

He folded his arms,
And gave me a moment,
And I saw nothing.

And when it's gone,
It's gone for good,
It's gone forever (gone forever)

And I asked an old man,
"What do you see?"
He told me,
"I see a cardinal all alone,
I see a statue of a gnome,
I see a tree that's like a home,
Or close enough."
