Since You Been Gone
DARUSO Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Since you been gone

All the words are coming back to haunt me
Returning now in black and white
No escaping from feelin' empty in the night

I remember how *you used* to hold me
Before the rush of lovin' died
Ooh, if only i could turn back the hands of time
What we had would still be mine

Since you been gone
The nights are so lonely and oh, it's in your arms
Where I belong
How did i lose you? *and Why* did I let you go?

And now you're gone
Don't know where to run to and oh, without your touch
I come undone
You know *I been* waiting
I'm here and I'm holding on
Since you been gone

Now our dreams are just a distant memory

My world has come crashing down
And the silence in the air reminds me
You're not around

It's so hard for me to say it's over
So hard for me to walk away
But how can i keep pretending that I'm okay?
When i miss you more each day

Since you been gone
The nights are so lonely and oh, it's in your arms
Where I belong
How did I lose you? and Why did I let you go?

And now you're gone
Don't know where to run to and oh, without your touch
I come undone
You know *I've been* waiting




I'm here and I'm holding on
Since you been gone

I can't keep pretending that I'm alright without you


When i miss you more each day
Because I miss you more every single day
