(drown in my own tears) If you don't think you'll be home soon I guess I'll drown in my own tears It brings a tear into my eyes When I begin to realize I've cried so much Since you've been gone I guess I'm drowning in my own tears I sit and cry just like

Since you've been gone And you needed to come home (Since you've been gone) And you needed me all along There's nowhere to go so just stay with me 'Cause since you've been gone, I've been begging you please To tell me you're not alright To tell me you're

To take away the heartache, to take away the loneliness I've been feelin' since you've been gone, since you've been gone To take away the loneliness I've been feelin' since you've been gone Don't you know, so many things they come and go Like your words

But to see my sunshine again (But to see my sunshine again) To see my sunshine again Just to see my sunshine again Looking out my window (Again again) I can't help but think of you Since you've been gone away

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

Girl of my dreams I love you, honest I do, You are so sweet, If I could just hold your charms again in my arms, Then life would be complete; Since you've been gone dear, life don't seem the same, Please come back again. And after all's said and done,

don't know how don't know how, not to Love you I don't know how But I don't know how You said that time would ease the pain But I still hear your voice whisper my name Since you've been gone my world stands still You said I'd forget, but I never will

I can get up and face the day Just fine all by myself Go out and take on the world And get it done like nobody else Ohh but I don't do lonely well Baby since you've been gone I leave the TV on Gotta hear somebody's voice I just need some kind of noise

I ain't missing you Since you've been gone, away Down this long distance line tonight Everytime I think of you I always catch my breath And I'm still standing here and your miles away And I'm wondering why you left And there's a storm that's raging

Someday baby, I ain't gonna worry my life no more Oh Lord, Lordy Lord, it hurts me so bad for us to part You're on my mind every place I go How much I love you, baby you'll never know So many mornings since you've been gone I'm on my knees prayin' to you
