[Verse 1]
I've seen lovers come and lovers go
Seasons change and love grow cold
I've watched fiery eyes just flicker inside
I've held a spark and I've watched it die
I've felt feelings change when mine stayed the same
I can't say that love's been too kind
[Chorus]
It's gone like a '73 Cadillac Coupe Deville
Gone like an old freight train rolling down a hill
It's gone like a Carolina sunset, like the wind when it blows
I don't know, but I'm told the
Lord knows where the love goes
[Post-Chorus]
Mm
Mm
[Verse 2]
I've seen better days, smile through the pain
Taking drinks of cheap champagne
If you ask if I'm doing alright
I'll lie and say that I'm doing just fine
Oh, Lord, my heart's gone and turned so cold
Oh, I'm too young to feel so old
[Chorus]
It's gone like a '73 Cadillac Coupe Deville
Gone like an old freight train rolling down a hill
It's gone like a Carolina sunset, like the wind when it blows
I don't know, but I'm told the
Lord knows where the love goes
[Bridge]
Lean not on my understanding
You can't blame me for asking
Oh
[Chorus]
It's gone like a '73 Cadillac Coupe Deville
Gone like an old freight train rolling down a hill
It's gone like a Carolina sunset, like the wind when it blows
I don't know, but I'm told the
Lord knows where the love goes
[Outro]
Lean not on my understanding
You can't blame me for asking
Lean not on my understanding
You can't blame me for asking
