Gone (song #128)

Gone

(You) Said you were leaving

But I just wouldn’t believe

Now you’re gone

And the joke’s on me

But the hurt’s on you

You make a stand

And you’re gone

If this is all - if this is it

Tell my why would I forget

If this is you - if this is me

Tell me why’s this have to be gone

Burning me up inside

Held hostage by desire

And still your gone

Can chemistry expire?

Every word comes out wrong

And every moment takes too long

And you’re gone

If this is all - if this is it

Tell my why would I forget

If this is you - if this is me

Tell me why’s this have to be gone

Im not trying to make you cry

I just get so scared when I look into your eyes

I just wanna be the one to blame

I didn’t know that I was pushing you away

I didn’t know

If this is all - if this is it

Tell my why would I forget

If this is you - if this is me

Tell me why’s this have to be gone

You said you were leaving

And I just would believe
