Kelly Clarkson - Already Gone Lyrics

Artist: Kelly Clarkson

Album: All I Ever Wanted

  • Songwriters: Kelly Brianne Clarkson, Ryan Tedder

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

Even with our fists held high
It never would've worked out right
We were never meant for do or die

I didn't want us to burn out
I didn't come here to hold you, now I can't stop

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

Looking at you makes it harder
But I know that you'll find another
That doesn't always make you want to cry

Started with a perfect kiss then we could feel the poison set in
Perfect couldn't keep this love alive
You know that I love you so, I love you enough to let you go

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on so I'm already gone

Already gone, already gone, already gone
Already gone, already gone, already gone, yeah

Remember all the things we wanted
Now all our memories they're haunted
We were always meant to say goodbye

I want you to know that it doesn't matter
Where we take this road someone's gotta go
And I want you to know you couldn't have loved me better
But I want you to move on so I'm already gone

I'm already gone, already gone
You can't make it feel right when you know that it's wrong
I'm already gone, already gone
There's no moving on so I'm already gone

  • Becky Richards Peterson

    This song is what my marriage was about..I couldn't watch him cry anymore and be so unhappy in our marriage..so I let him go find another..but it was the hardest thing I ever had to do..but he is happier now..and that is all that matters..

    This cong says everything Im feeling.. I left my boyfriend of 3 years.. about 3 months ago... I met him after my husband had died and he helped put me back together again.. I will be forever grateful and he will always be in my heart but we really are just two different people and we are better friends... But It is very hard to let go and very hard to hurt him

    This songs describes exactly how i feel. 3 and half yrs of long distance, 2 diff ppl in diff country, 2 diff lives. From studying to working. Seperate lives seperate friends. Gets harder each day. You miss them so much. Wish thy could b by ur side. But its stopping each other lives. You know u love each other, but its nt getting anywhere, n distance causing so much arguements. Better off without each other..

    This Song Is Great..
    As of now True too..
    my relationship is going up and down the hill.
    and im thinking it will get bettter..
    sometimes i think im already gone..
    but wen i take a look back, i cant help but to think about how much i love him..♥
    i cant stop but to love him..
    but i want him to know that..
    the longer we stay apart the less feelings im going to hhave for him...
    make up or break is our only and final decision..!!

    song reminds me of 2 people that should be together, but cannot be for whatever reason. She's being the stronger one and saying goodbye. Sometimes love is tragic, but saying goodbye and loving someone that you cannot be with is beautiful too, becasue the love will last forever, even if you didnt

    I just got married to someone and now that we are married, he started changing and stopped trying. Made excuses of why he can't control his temper and tries to make everything alright by ignoring the fact that my heart isn't in it anymore.I try to tell him I just can't pretend anymore I want to leave and he ignores me like i never said anything. He will come home soon one day and find a note and my stuff gone. This song just says in my situation that my heart just left him a long time before I could gather my things and leave. In the end he will be the victim and feel self-pity, never allowing himself to change for the better by feeling the truth.

    it reminds me why I broke up with my bf

    This song is really sad, but true. It reminds me of a guy friend I dated briefly. He wanted to continue a long distance relationship. I thought I could like him more than a friend, but things didn't work out that way. The feelings were not there anymore.

    Supposedly this is the song she wrote for New Moon. If you have ever read the book, you will know this song is PERFECT for the movie. It is a very moving song, and as far as the movie goes, I can see that portion of the book jump out at me.
