When Love Is Gone

Girl you're old enough to know the way your life should be

Why then do you always ask your mother and me?

Chances are our future's are over said and done

The battle now is over and the war I have won

Think that over

While you're lying in your sleep at night

You and me we could have made it baby, baby

But you walked out of my life

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Girl, I see no further reason for me to carry on

This will be the last time I write to you in song

My heart's an open secret your love has closed the door

It's over

Like the time that's passed away til' now

How much longer will I suffer baby, baby

Must I bear this pain and smile

Now my love is gone, gone, gone, gone

It's gonna be hard to carry on

Look at me baby

Haven't you ever seen a grown man cry

Don't it look funny, sugar

Watchin' tears fall from his eyes

Yes indeed I cry, cry

[Chorus]

(When your love is gone)

(When your love is gone)

[It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)

(it's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)

I When your love is gone)

(When your love is gone)

(It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)'

(It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)

(When your love is gone)

(When your love is gone)

(It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)

(It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)

Girl, to see my life without you is more than I can stand

Picture me an empty hollow shell of a man

Caged within, a feelin' that one day you'll return

Knowing that can never be, my flesh starts to burn

Don't you care baby?

Don't you even feel the pain and hurt

I'm goin' through

If you really, really, really cared baby, baby

You'd know what I'm goin' through

Now my love is gone

Gonna be so hard to carry on

Look at me baby

Haven't you ever seen a grown man cry?

Don't it look funny sugar ?

Watchin' tears fall from his eyes

Won't you tell me why

Oh why

Oh why

Oh why has it gone
