About the song
Love gone bad
Lyrics
These days are full of memories
And the ghosts of embraces
Though my heart is aching
I remember smiling faces
I'm staring at an empty chair
Wishing you were sitting there
Instead of running off to distant places
I'm better off without you
Still I think about you
Still I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
I know about your wandering ways
Still I hate to leave these days
Still I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
These nights are full of loneliness
Staring at the telephone
Though I know you won't call
It helps me when I feel alone
I wish I had the words to say
To make you change your mind and stay
But I know you never saw this place as home
These days are full of looking back
Wondering where did I go wrong
I thought I held you in my heart
Now it seems I'm not so strong
When I looked into your eyes
Never did I realise
This is not the place where you belong
These eyes are full of wasted tears
My pain don't touch you anymore
I don't know why I feel this way
I thought I'd been in love before
Goodbye is a lonely word
But the coldest sound I ever heard
Was when I heard the slamming of the door
And the ghosts of embraces
Though my heart is aching
I remember smiling faces
I'm staring at an empty chair
Wishing you were sitting there
Instead of running off to distant places
I'm better off without you
Still I think about you
Still I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
I know about your wandering ways
Still I hate to leave these days
Still I'm gonna miss you when you're gone
These nights are full of loneliness
Staring at the telephone
Though I know you won't call
It helps me when I feel alone
I wish I had the words to say
To make you change your mind and stay
But I know you never saw this place as home
These days are full of looking back
Wondering where did I go wrong
I thought I held you in my heart
Now it seems I'm not so strong
When I looked into your eyes
Never did I realise
This is not the place where you belong
These eyes are full of wasted tears
My pain don't touch you anymore
I don't know why I feel this way
I thought I'd been in love before
Goodbye is a lonely word
But the coldest sound I ever heard
Was when I heard the slamming of the door
