I've been gone Here I am all alone again tonight In this old empty house It's hard to learn what you don't think you need You can't live without Never leave the sound of the telephone But ever since you left Gone crazy, goin' out of my mind

It's not the same without your love Every night and every day, girl It's late at night, nothin's feelin' right Since you've gone away I think I know why you left this time, But it's still hard to say I nearly lost it, when he came around you Now I'm

In the silence of my mind I can see our love was just a line To a grasp of air That's nowhere And while I wait for love's embrace My life is but a race Since you're gone now All my light is left to waste I never learned the rule
