Lyrics Luther Vandross

Luther Vandross

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)
