Now That You're Gone Lyrics

I didn't see you all the time

'Cause between us is a border line

Ooo

And I can't forget that August day

When my parents said you've gone away

Ooo

Living with it couldn't have been easy

And it took you so much sooner than we thought

And by the time I said goodbye

You couldn't hear me when I cried

But if you can hear me now, know I never forgot

Coming from the same

To whom you sang when I was young

Would you be disappointed

I never learned the mother tongue?

Or would you be proud

To see how far I've come along?

I'm hoping it's the latter

'Cause the first seems so much sadder

Now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

The neighbors' window has no pane

And now you'll have no more again

Ooo

The sheep across the street I didn't count

'Cause I never did sleep at your house

Ooo

Living with him couldn't have been easy

But I hope you know he loved us nonetheless

The smoke shines through the sunlight beams

You're ladybugs dart in between

We come to you beside him when you rest

Coming from the same

That seldom straid from your backyard

Would you be disappointed

That I was caught inside your car?

Or would you be proud

To see how far I've carried on?

I'm hoping it's the latter

'Cause the first seems so much sadder

Now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

It's not like I don't want to live like you did per se

It's just that I don't want to die in the same way

All you ever wanted

Was to see us when we're grown

But now we're here remembering you

Behind this microphone

A lot has changed since you went away

But it's for the best, I swear

There's so many thing I need to say

But for now, just know I care

Now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

Now that you're gone

Ooo
