Rosco Gordon Now You Are Gone Essay

Satisfactory Essays

Now you’re gone by Rosco Gordon talks about how a woman left or died. He is talking about the heartache he feels without her there. How all the plans they made will never be able to happen because she is gone. There is a part in the song where it says “So many plans, so many dreams, but so little time” I think this phrase is poetic because it’s saying how we don’t have all the time in the world to complete our dreams and plans. We have very little time to accomplish them. He misses her and he says that without her there is no sunshine in his life also very poetic because it is saying that she was everything to him that she was his light so now that she is gone he is in the dark having that light taken away from him.
