Lyrics Clyde McPhatter

Clyde McPhatter

Since You've Been Gone

Early in the mornin'

Before the crack of dawn,

Sittin' here thinkin'

Oh why was I born?

So broken hearted,

How can I go on?

Since you've been gone, since you've been gone.

I was so happy

With you by my side,

You told me you loved me,

But honey you lied.

You left me here cryin',

How can I go on?

Since you've been gone, since you've been gone.

The night seems like a million years, mmhm,

Waitin' 'til the break of day appears, oh oh oh.

All night long weepin' like a willow,

Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow,

Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.

Gonna go walkin'

By the railroad track,

I'm gonna let the choo-choo cross over my back.

Life ain't worth livin',

How can I go on?

Since you've been gone, since you've been gone.

The night seems like a million years,

Waitin' 'til the break of day appears, mmm.

All night long weepin' like a willow,

Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow,

Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.

Gonna go walkin'

By the railroad track,

I'm gonna let the choo-choo cross over my back.

Life ain't worth livin',

How can I go on?

Since you've been gone, since you've been gone,

Since you've been go-o-o-o-one.

Ya ya, ya ya ya ya ya ya.

Since you've been gone...
