(Since You've) Gone
Recorded by
Ferlin Husky, 1957
(b.
03 Dec 1925)
Since you've gone, the moon, the sun, the stars in the sky know the reason why I
cry
Love divine once was mine; now you've gone
Since you've gone, my heart, my lips, my tear dimmed eyes, a lonely soul within me
cries
I acted smart, broke your heart, now you've gone
Oh, what I'd give for the lifetime I've wasted
The love that I've tasted; I was wrong; now you've gone
Oh what I'd give for the lifetime...
