Here's the thing, we started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Since you been gone
You're dedicated, you took the time
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Since you been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I picture me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say
But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm moving on, yeah-yeah, thanks to you
Now I get what I want
Since you been gone
How do I put it? You put me on
I even fell for your stupid love song
Since you been gone
How come I'd never hear you say
"I just wanna be with you"?
I guess you never felt that way
But since you been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm moving on, yeah-yeah, thanks to you
Now I get what I want, mmm
You had your chance, you blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth, I just can't take it again
And again and again
Since you been gone
Since you been gone
