[Verse 1]
Think I'll bag that trip for two
Pack it up to Kakadu
Honey, it's not for the weather
Or lack of loving you
I got all this in between
Something I did not foresee
All the deals I made don't matter
If I can't just let you be

[Chorus]
Gone again, gone again
There ain't no way that I'm gonna let this heart mend
Gone again

[Verse 2]
Walked in King's Cross for a while
Gave a junkie girl a smile
We both trade it in for danger
Or the company of strangers
She said all her family
Was at the welfare agency
Then she swindled my last twenty
For a kiss and some poetry

[Chorus]
Gone again, gone again
'Cause there ain't no way I'm gonna let this heart mend
Gone again
[Verse 3]
If I don't make Kakadu
I'll be at the Rainbow Room
And I'll be courting some disaster
With the Melbourne wrecking crew
Honey, all this is to say
That every dog don't got its day
If we take the love we're given
And we throw it all away

[Chorus]
It's gone again, it's gone again
'Cause there ain't no way that I'm gonna let this heart mend
It's gone again, it's gone again
'Cause there ain't no way that I'm gonna let this heart mend
Gone again
