Now You're Gone
Lying there beside you in the dark, I could not see
Past the light you had set there for me
Oh, that night had it's meaning and the flame shook your room
From the walls to the beating of my heart
But now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Yes, now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Oh, your sighs screamed with loneliness
Your eyes traced broken dreams
And your touch held a warning of goodbye
Oh, many's the times I've reached for you
More's the times I've failed
I'm the reason, I'm the cause of it all
But now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Why you begged me?
Must we stay here but to wait a bitter end
Than the silence this dimming light foretells
Why the future? Why the past?
Why this moments cold retreat?
How do I know there's no relief you can bring?
And I was lost, I could not answer
No, I could not shed a tear
To the ghost of a love that could have been
Well, I see them all just coming
And I know that they're all gone
But as you're near I won't worry any more
And now you're gone
And I worry anymore
Yes, you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Past the light you had set there for me
Oh, that night had it's meaning and the flame shook your room
From the walls to the beating of my heart
But now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Yes, now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Oh, your sighs screamed with loneliness
Your eyes traced broken dreams
And your touch held a warning of goodbye
Oh, many's the times I've reached for you
More's the times I've failed
I'm the reason, I'm the cause of it all
But now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Now you're gone
And I won't worry any more
Why you begged me?
Must we stay here but to wait a bitter end
Than the silence this dimming light foretells
Why the future? Why the past?
Why this moments cold retreat?
How do I know there's no relief you can bring?
And I was lost, I could not answer
No, I could not shed a tear
To the ghost of a love that could have been
Well, I see them all just coming
And I know that they're all gone
But as you're near I won't worry any more
And now you're gone
And I worry anymore
Yes, you're gone
And I won't worry any more
