Gone Away
I said good bye, but you are still here.
Haven't you seen enough of my tears?
Haven't you heard my lonely heart shatter?
What do you care? Why does it matter?
The thought of you gone leaves me in despair.
I know that this is over. I'm fully aware.
But I say good bye, and you are still here,
Haven't you seen enough of my tears?
I'm hurting. I'm breaking. I cannot go on..
You're the only one left who can make this be gone.
Gone, gone, gone away..
Your love was never here to stay.
Gone, gone, gone away..
You'll be gone tomorrow, yet still here today.
I gave you your space. I left you alone.
I lived with a stranger in my own home.
And I said my good bye. Why are you still here?
Haven't you seen enough of my tears?
This has to end. You have to give in.
It's time I let my healing begin..
I screamed good bye, but you are still here.
Please baby leave! You are not worth my tears!
I'm hurting. I'm breaking. I cannot go on.
You're the only one left who can make this be gone..
Gone, gone, gone away..
My sweetheart you were never meant to stay.
Gone, gone, gone away..
You'll be gone tomorrow, yet still here today.
Haven't you seen enough of my tears?
Haven't you heard my lonely heart shatter?
What do you care? Why does it matter?
The thought of you gone leaves me in despair.

Haven't you seen enough of my tears?
I'm hurting. I'm breaking. I cannot go on..
You're the only one left who can make this be gone.
Gone, gone, gone away..
Your love was never here to stay.
