Since You've Been Gone

Baby, baby, sweet baby
Thereâ? s something that Iâ? ve just got to say
Baby, baby, sweet baby
You left me hurtinâ? in a real cold way

Speak your name and I feel a thrill
You said I do, sure thing, and I said I will

I told you to just be true
And give me just a little time
Wait on me, baby
I want you to be all oâ? mine
Iâ? ve just been so blue
Since youâ? ve been gone
(whyâ? d ya do it, whyâ? d ya have to do it)

Since youâ? ve been gone
Iâ? ve been missinâ? you
Miss your good love
Miss your kissinâ? too
What a shame, whyâ? d you do that
Whyâ? d you tip on me?
Come home, bring your love back now
To rescue me, Uh Huh

Baby, baby, sweet baby
(sweet, sweet baby)
I didnâ? t mean to run you away
It was pride on my lips
But not in my heart
To say the things that made you stray

And I mean
Hear me now (hear me)
I donâ? t know what Iâ? m gonna do (hear me)
Gotta get you back somehow (hear me now)

And all I know is if ya
Take me back
Consider me, please
If you walk in that door
I can get you off my knees
And Iâ? ve just been so blue
Since youâ? ve been gone
(whyâ? d ya do it, whyâ? d ya have to do it)
Since youâ? ve been gone
(whyâ? d ya do it, whyâ? d ya have to do it)
