Isley Brothers - Tears lyrics

I wonder where she is tonight

Is she alone or did she find

What she needed from me

I guess I got what I deserve

How could I do on hurtin' her that way

And think she'd stay

I found it sittin' on the stove

"It's over" written on a Post-It note

And that was all she wrote

(Chorus:)

She's gone like the mind of a man insane

Gone like the snow when it turns to rain

And runs down the road and down the drain, so long

Long gone like the money when you've paid the rent

Gone like the time that i should've spent at home

With her, too bad, one word

Gone

Then out of nowhere she showed up

For a minute I didn't know what to say

I was blown away

This time I'm gonna do things right

Gonna show her every night I care

This time, I swear

As I reach out to touch her face

That's when the whole thing starts to fade

Then I hear the sound of my alarm clock

And it hits me like a Mack truck doin' ninety

Down a one way dead end road bound straight for hell

(Chorus)

Long, long gone like the money when you've paid the rent

Gone like the time that I should've spend at home

With her, too bad, one word

Gone

Gone
