Here's the thing, we started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone, gone, gone, gone...

You're dedicated, you took the time
It wasn't long before I made you mine
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone, gone, gone...

How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
How come I'd never hear you say

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah

Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since you've been gone

How can I put it, you put me on
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone, gone, gone...

How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way

But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so movin' on
Yeah, yeah

Thanks to you
Now I get
What I want
Since you've been gone...

Wait, they don't love you like I love you
Wait, they don't love you like I love you

Wait, they don't love you like I love you
They don't love you like I love you
They don't love you like I love you
They don't love you like I love you
