Lyrics

Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
I want you back, how do I act
To make contact and get respect?
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
I lay and sigh, the other guy
He was my friend and part of kin
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
And I never loved nobody
[Instrumental]
Who's been mean to me, never did
I've got a heart full of stone, a heart full of stone
And I hate the misery
And then you, and then you
And then you, and then you
Came along
And you had to come along
Destroying me more
[Instrumental]
And now you're gone
Now you're gone
What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
I want you back, how do I act
To make contact and get respect?
You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
And now you're gone
[Instrumental]
Now you're gone
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
What shall I do? My world is blue
This isn't true, my life is through
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
You hurt me bad, I'm all too sad
I didn't know I love you so
Now you're gone
[Instrumental]
You had a plan, another man
Went off to hide, I could have died
Now you're gone, now you're gone
I lay and sigh, the other guy
He was my friend and part of kin
