Now You're Gone
Jack-E & Benji de la House Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴
I'd like to ask, did you even love me
I did all-in only to be turned into pieces
It was as if the legend of Phoenix is real
'Coz I kept finding myself standing still
But I was glad to always got myself back, oh woh ooh
Can you do yourself a great favor
Respect yourself and love unconditionally
Those are the reasons as to why I kept forgiving you
But, I had to move on to protect myself from further hurt
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh oohh
You were so bad, so very, very bad
And, do you think I didn't know that you painted me
As someone who's gone mad
All because I got my courage back and came forward
Oh how I wish you'll get your own reward
And share it with all your allies
You even made it looked like loving you is a crime
And, did you ever flinch when you pulled an "ad hominem" on me
Oh you, and all the things you have done
I don't know how you can even walk around
I did love you, but, I love my family and friends
I shouldn't have done all-in
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh ohh
Oh woh, oh woh ohh, oh woh, oh woh ohh, oh, oh woh ohh
Now that you're gone, I'm just so happy
I can even dance all night long
Play my guitar until I get tired
And sing my song to the top of my lungs, oh woh ooh
The lyrics to "Now You're Gone" by Jack-E & Benji de la House express feelings of liberation and empowerment after a toxic relationship. The singer begins by expressing disbelief that they loved their partner more than themselves and questions if their partner ever truly loved them in return. Despite giving everything to the relationship, they were only broken into pieces. The reference to the legend of the Phoenix implies that despite being repeatedly knocked down, the singer always found the strength to rise again.
The lyrics suggest that the singer understood the importance of self-respect and unconditional love, which they tried to embody in their relationship. They forgave their partner repeatedly, but eventually had to move on to protect themselves from further pain. With the partner now gone, the singer feels an overwhelming sense of happiness. They can dance all night long, play their guitar without getting tired, and sing their song with passion and freedom. The lyrics capture a sense of newfound confidence and self-love after escaping a toxic relationship.
The song explores themes of resilience, self-discovery, and the power of letting go. It emphasizes the importance of valuing oneself and not allowing someone else's negative actions and words to define who you are. The lyrics also touch upon the idea of finding happiness and contentment beyond a toxic relationship.

Verse 1]
With every passing moment
Thoughts of you run through my head
Everytime that I'm near you
I realize that you heaven sent, (come on, oh)
I think you truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together you and me girl
Thereβs no one like you around, (around no, no, oh)
(There's nobody like you, no one)
No one like you around, babe! (oh, let's go)
[Chorus]
Cuz I really like, what you done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
I really likΠ΅, what you done to me babe
I can't rΠ΅ally explain
I'm so into you
[Verse 2]
Might be the way that you hold me
Could be the things that you say
Oh I'm not too sure what it is girl
But I know I like feeling this way, (no, oh, no)
I think you truly something special
Just what my dreams are really made of
Let's stay together you and me girl
Thereβs no one like you around, (oh, come on!)
[Chorus]
Say, really like what you done to me
I can't really explain it
I'm so into you
I really like, what you done to me babe
I can't really explain
I'm so into you
[Brigde]
I really like what I feel, when I'm with you
You're a dream come true
Don't you ever leave my side
Cuz it feel so right that night, (oh)
[Chorus]
I really like what you done to me, (done to me)
I can't really explain it, (no, no)
I'm so into you
I really like
What you done to me babe, (oh)
I can't really explain
I'm so into you, (Jac Ross, D-Nice)
Youuu, (oooh) (Dark child)
(Oh)
Here we go!
I'm so into you girl
I'm so into you
Let it breath
