After you've gone - and left me crying
After you've gone - there's no denying
You'll feel blue - you're gonna be sad
You've missed the dearest pal that (slickest partner) you ever had
There'll come a time - don't you forget it
(Yeah) There'll come a time - when you're gonna regret it
Some day when you get lonely
Your heart will break like mine - (and) you'll want me only
After you've gone (split) - after you've gone away (flown the coop)
After we paid - our dues together
You should have stayed - through all that nasty weather
Someday while you're feeling badly
You'll need the only one that loves you so madly
But I'll be gone - yes I'll be gone - to stay
Yeah after I've gone - after I've gone awayYou don't touch me anymore
You never say the words I love you
You just sit behind your paper
Your silence cuts me like a razor
I'm gonna leave you...maybe someday soon
When I can give up this fight
But maybe not tonight
We don't talk much anymore
Not the same way that we used to
Whenever I reach out to hold you
You turn away...what am I supposed to do
I'm gonna say goodbye
When the moments right
Like an eagle I will fly
But maybe not tonight
Can you just hold me
In your arms so deep
Wanna feel you breathing on my skin
We fell out of love
We can fall back in
You never look at me that way
(So many times I've longed to say)
You used to brush the hair back from my face
(Oh God how I miss those days)
You used to make me feel like someone
(Tell me where did we go wrong)
You were my best friend,my one and only
(You're still the only one)
Just as I'm leavin' you
You walk in the room
I see the flicker in your eyes
We say maybe not tonight
Can you just hold me
In your arms so deep
Wanna feel you breathing on my skin
We fell out of love
We can fall back in
You don't touch me anymore
You never say the words I love you
I love you
