Being Gone
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.
Never thought that you'd be leaving
You were here one day
The next day you were gone
I'll admit that sometimes it's been hard
For me to face the lonely nights alone
Wish you could see the baby now
She looks more like you everyday
You're being here gave so much more
Than you're being gone could ever take away
Other arms have reached out for me
But I could never give in to their touch
By now I should be getting over you
But I still love you much too much
Your gold ring's on my finger
And I swear I'll wear it 'til my dying day
You're being here gave so much more
Than you're being gone could ever take away
Oh, on a Saturday afternoon like this
I really miss the way it used to be
No matter where you are today
I know somehow your thoughts will turn to me
Today, I'll come to see you
Place a spray of roses where you lay
You're being here gave so much more
Than you're being gone could ever take away
You're being here gave so much more
Than you're being gone could ever take away
