作词 : James Girl you're old enough to know the way your life should be Why then do you always ask your mother and me? Chances are our future's are over said and done The battle now is over and the war I have won Think that over While you're lying in your sleep at night You and me we could have made it baby, baby But you walked out of my life Now my love is gone Now my love is gone Now my love is gone Now my love is gone Girl, I see no further reason for me to carry on This will be the last time I write to you in song My heart's an open secret your love has closed the door It's over Like the time that's passed away til' now How much longer will I suffer baby, baby Must I bear this pain and smile Now my love is gone, gone, gone, gone It's gonna be hard to carry on Look at me baby Haven't you ever seen a grown man cry Don't it look funny, sugar Watchin' tears fall from his eyes Yes indeed I cry, cry [Chorus] (When your love is gone) (When your love is gone) [It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone) (it's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone) I When your love is gone) (When your love is gone) (It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone)' (It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone) (When your love is gone) (When your love is gone) (It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone) (It's gone, it's gone, it's gone, it's gone) Girl, to see my life without you is more than I can stand Picture me an empty hollow shell of a man Caged within, a feelin' that one day you'll return Knowing that can never be, my flesh starts to burn Don't you care baby? Don't you even feel the pain and hurt I'm goin' through If you really, really, really cared baby, baby You'd know what I'm goin' through Now my love is gone Gonna be so hard to carry on Look at me baby Haven't you ever seen a grown man cry? Don't it look funny sugar ? Watchin' tears fall from his eyes Won't you tell me why Oh why Oh why Oh why has it gone
