Versuri/Lyrics "Gone At Last" Alexandru Andries

------------------------------------------
(Paul Simon, 1975)

The night was black, the roads were icy,
Snow was fallin', drifts were high
And I was weary from my driving
And I stopped to rest for a while.
I sat down at a truck stop,
I was thinking about my past:
I've had a long streak of that bad luck,
But I'm praying it's gone at last !

Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
I've had a long (I had a long) streak of that bad luck
But I'm praying it's gone at last !
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

I ain't dumb, I kicked around some,
I don't fall too easily,
But that boy looked so dejected,
He just grabbed my sympathy...
Sweet little soul, now, what's your problem?
Tell me why you're so downcast ?
I've had a long streak of that bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last !

Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
I had a long (I had a long) streak of that bad luck
But I pray it's gone at last...
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Once in a while from out of nowhere,
When you don't expect it, and you're unprepared,
Somebody will come and lift you higher
And your burdens will be shared.
Yes, I do believe, if I hadn't met you,
I might still be sinking fast,
I've had a long streak of that bad luck,
But I pray it's gone at last !

Gone, gone,gone (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
It's gone at last, (gone at last)
I had a long (I had a long) streak of that bad luck,
But I pray it's gone at last,
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
Gone at last, (gone at last)
I had a long (I had a long) streak of that bad luck,
But I'm praying it's gone at last !
