She's Gone
This Cold Night Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I saw her face
In the mirror
I saw her face
And it was clear to me
I saw her face
I saw her face
Looking back at me
It said she was about to leave
It said so many unkind things
It said everything and nothing

She is about to leave
She is about to leave
She is about to leave
And take what's dear to me
As single tear ran down her cheek
A single tear is all she left me

She is about to leave
She is about to leave forever
Why why why why what have I done
Why why why do you mean move on

And now she's gone
And I've got so much time




And now she's gone
Forever forever forever

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of "She's Gone" by This Cold Night portray the singer's realization and acceptance that a significant person in their life is leaving. The repetitiveness of "I saw her face" emphasizes the impact of this revelation. The mirror becomes a metaphorical tool for self-reflection, as the singer sees the reflection of the person they are about to lose. This reflection also contains a message of departure, filled with both cruelty and emptiness.


As the lyrics progress, it becomes clear that the departing person is about to leave and take something precious to the singer. The single tear that runs down her cheek represents the only emotional trace she leaves behind. The repetition of "why" suggests the singer's confusion and remorse, questioning their own actions and pleading for the person to stay. However, despite their longing, the person has already departed, leaving the singer with an abundance of time and without any chance of reconciliation.


Overall, the lyrics express the profound impact of losing someone dear, the regret and longing for their presence, and the heartbreaking realization that they are gone forever.

A magician with his beautiful voice--

She's gone
Out of my life
I was wrong
I'm to blame
I was so untrue
I can't live without her love

In my life
There's just an empty space
All my dreams are lost
I'm wasting away
Forgive me, girl

Lady, won't you save me?
My heart belongs to you
Lady, can you forgive me?
For all I've done to you
Lady, oh, lady

She's gone
Out of my life
Oh, she's gone
I find it so hard to go on
I really miss that girl, my love

Come back
Into my arms
I'm so alone
I'm begging you
I'm down on my knees
Forgive me, girl

Lady, won't you save me?
My heart belongs to you
Lady, can you forgive me?
For all I've done to you
Lady, oh, lady

Lady, won't you save me?
My heart belongs to you
Lady, can you forgive me?
For all I've done to you
Lady, oh, lady

My heart belongs to you
Lady, can you forgive me?
For all I've done to you
