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 guess I'll drown in my own tears If you don't think You'll be home soon It brings a tear Into my eyes When I begin I've cried so much Since you've been gone

Alberta, Alberta, Where you been so long? Ain't had no loving Since you've been gone. Where'd you stay last night? Girl, you're on my mind. Alberta, Alberta Come home this morning, Clothes don't fit you right

But I blew it without even tryin' Since you've been gone it's hard to carry on I had nothing to do on this hot afternoon But to settle down and write you a line I've been meaning to phone you but from Minnesota Hell it's been a very long time You wear it

I guess I'll drown in my own tears If you don't think You'll be home soon It brings a tear Into my eyes When I begin I've cried so much Since you've been gone

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

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

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

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
