Lyrics

You cheated me
And made me lonely
I tried to be
Your very own
There'll be a day
You'll want me only
But when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
You're gonna be sad
You're gonna be weepin'
You're gonna be blue
And all alone
You'll regret the day
You seen me leavin'
'Cause when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
You'll see my face
Through tears and sorrow
You'll miss the love
You called your own
Baby, there'll be no tomorrow
'Cause when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
I'll be a long time gone
I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
Be a long time gone
I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I leave
I'll be a long time gone
