Now You’re Gone
Now you're gone
Now you're gone

You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
Now you're gone
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
Now you're gone
What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
Now you're gone
I want you back, how do I act
To make contact and get respect?
Now you're gone
I lay and sigh, the other guy
He was my friend and part of kin
Now you're gone

And I never loved nobody
Who's been mean to me, never did
I've got a heart full of stone, a heart full of stone
And I hate the misery

And then you, and then you
And then you, and then you
Came along
And you had to come along
Destroying me more
And now you're gone
Now you're gone
What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
I want you back, how do I act
To make contact and get respect?
You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
And now you're gone

Now you're gone
Now you're gone

Now you're gone
Now you're gone

What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
Now you're gone
You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
Now you're gone
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
Now you're gone, now you're gone
I lay and sigh, the other guy
He was my friend and part of kin
