Lyrics
You've been in love once before
But never quite like this (no)
And you fall in love more and more
With every single kiss (yeah)
So tell me why do you do the things
That you continue to do
When I'm not the one who hurt you so
I wouldn't cheat on you
It can't keep goin' on (it can't keep goin' on)
Like the feeling doesn't exist (feeling doesn't exist)
Or the one you love will be the one you miss
Then you'll dream about love and how it would be
But then you'll wake up to reality to find I'm gone, I'm gone
Then you'll start to think and reminisce
'Cause it's my hugs and kisses you'll miss
But I'm gone, I'm gone (I've left you all alone and gone)
You go through life searching for love
And you're lucky if you find (yeah)
Someone who cares about you so
And will never mislead you (no)
But if you hide the way you feel, why do you carry on?
'Cause I won't stay around to wait on you to make up your mind
It can't keep going on like the feeling doesn't exist
For the one you love will be the one you miss
Then you'll dream about love and how it would be
But then you'll wake up to reality to find I'm gone, I'm gone
Then you'll start to think and reminisce
'Cause it's my hugs and kisses you'll miss
But I'm gone, I'm gone (I've left you all alone and gone)
It can't keep going on like the feeling doesn't exist
Or the one you love will be the one you miss
Then you'll dream about love and how it would be
But then you'll wake up to reality to find I'm gone, I'm gone
Then you'll start to think and reminisce
'Cause it's my hugs and kisses you'll miss
But I'm gone, I'm gone
Then you'll dream about love and how it would be
But then you'll wake up to reality to find I'm gone, I'm gone
Then you'll start to think and reminisce
'Cause it's my hugs and kisses you'll miss
I'm gone, I'm gone
La la la la la
La la de da
I'm gone
I'm gone, I'm gone
La la la la la
La la de da
La la la la la
La la de da
La la la la la
