You're gonna miss me
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You're gonna miss me, miss me baby
You're gonna miss me when I'm gone
You know your life is gonna be so lonely darling
And your days are gonna be so blue
You know you think not baby you don't love me
But you're just waiting till I'm gone
You believe to yourself you don't love me
But you're waiting till I'm gone
You know the day that you don't see me baby
I'm gone rest on, on your mind
You believe darling
You don't love me
I don't mix your water
Till when I run dry myself
You just wait and see baby
And count the days I'm gone
You're life is gonna be so lonely baby
And your days are gone so blue
Uhhhhmmm
You just count the days I'm gone
Uhhhhmmm
You just count the days I'm gone
Uhhhhmmm
You just count the days I'm gone
