The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Since you went away

I ain't never been the same, baby

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

You walked out and left me in the shadows

I always thought that you wanted me forever

You took my heart, my soul and my affection

Now that you've gone I've lost my whole direction

Sometimes I feel that you're still here with me

But when I wake up I realise that this just a dream

Now you're gone away from me

And all I wanna say

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

Our love was a perfect combination

We had a thing that was real

All of a sudden without an indication

You took my heart and left the situation

But now you're gone away from me forever

The situation's getting worse instead of getting better

Now you're gone away from me

And all I wanna say

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

But now you're gone away from me forever

The situation's getting worse instead of getting better

Now you're gone away from me

And all I wanna say

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody

(Since you went away, I ain't never been the same)

Since you went away

(Never been nobody, ain't never been nobody)

Ain't never been nobody
