Now That You're Gone
Corina Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's Go!
They say, be thankful girl
For all that he's blessed upon you.
Still I can't help but feel
He's taken life from in me.
All my life I've looked to him (God)
For answers no one seems to have.
My hands in prayer I'm on my knees
Forgiveness I ask for and yet!

Now that you're gone
These feelings of regret torment this side of me.
I need to love that's so strong
It's made me realize one time is all you need
Now that you're gone

Oh god the pain's returning.
I'm scared confusion's all I know.
I cry, the tears are burning.
I ask for strength to let go.
Tell me why you've chosen me
To test and will it ever end?
Will I survive, temptation grows.
I do what I must to forget.

Now that you're gone
These feelings of regret torment this side of me.
I need to love that's so strong
It's made me realize one time is all you need.
Now that you're gone

Mom you are the beat that makes my heart live




As I pray on my hands and knees please stay by my side
Now that you're gone (2x)

She feels this love should be so strong to never let you regret not having expressed it more.


In the second verse, Corina seems to be deeply hurt; pain and confusion are all she knows. She cries as she pleads with God for help. She wonders why she has been chosen to suffer this loss and whether it will ever end. She feels tempted to forget everything, but she resolves to do what she must to move forward.
