Early in the mornin', before the crack of dawn
I'm sittin' here thinkin', oh why was I born?
I'm so broken hearted, I just can't go on
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)

Now 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)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)

The night seems like a million years
Waitin' from the break of day appears
All night long weepin' like a willow
Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow
Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears

I'm gonna go walkin', by the railroad track
I'm gonna let the choo-choo cross over my back
Life ain't worth livin', I just can't go on
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)

All night long weepin' like a willow
Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow
Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears
I'm gonna go walkin', by the railroad track
I'm just gonna let the choo-choo cross over my back
Life ain't worth livin', I just can't go on
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
Since you've been gone (Since you've been gone)
