Gone Again Lyrics

Cover art for Gone Again lyrics by Indigo Girls

She writes about her tendency to throw away one relationship after another in her perpetually unsuccessful search of something better. So regardless of her situation, she simply never lets her heart mend. She gives two examples. In the first she attempts to find love with a "junkie girl", a sure recipe for disaster. The girl of course, takes her money and gives almost nothing in return (a kiss, a sob story and poetry). In the second, she is in the Rainbow Room again "courting some disaster". She realizes that emotionally things will never work out (even for dog) if we always discard our relationships.
