Luther Vandross - Since You've Been Gone lyrics

Baby, baby, sweet baby

There's something that I've just got to say

Baby, baby, sweet baby

You left me hurtin' in a real cold way

Speak your name and I feel a thrill

You said I do, sure thing, and I said I will

I told you to just be true

And give me just a little time

Wait on me, baby

I want you to be all o' mine

I've just been so blue

Since you've been gone

(why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)

Since you've been gone

I've been missin' you

Miss your good love

Miss your kissin' too

What a shame, why'd you do that

Why'd you tip on me?

Come home, bring your love back now

To rescue me, Uh Huh

Baby, baby, sweet baby

(sweet, sweet baby)

I didn't mean to run you away

It was pride on my lips

But not in my heart

To say the things that made you stray

And I mean

Hear me now (hear me)

I don't know what I'm gonna do (hear me)

Gotta get you back somehow (hear me now)

And all I know is if ya

Take me back

Consider me, please

If you walk in that door

I can get you off my knees

And I've just been so blue

Since you've been gone

(why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)

Since you've been gone

(why'd ya do it, why'd ya have to do it)
