Gone
Jim Ed Brown and the Browns · The Three Bells [Bear Family] [1993]
Since you're gone
The moon, the sun, the stars in the sky
Know the reason why I cry
Love divine, once was mine
Now you're gone.
Since you're gone
My heart, my lips, my tear dimmed eyes
A lonely soul within me cries
I acted smart, I broke your heart
Now you're gone.
Oh, oh, oh, oh, what I'd give
For the lifetime I've wasted
The love that I've tasted
I was wrong, now you're gone...
