If only I could make you see, / make you understand. /
The answer's not with wait and see, / it's right there in your hand. /

Forgive me, honey, I was blind; /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone. /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone, /
When you're gone, / gone. /

No, there's no way out of here, / in deeper every day. /
No, there's no way out of here, / no matter what they say. /

I'm so sorry, I was blind; /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone. /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone, /
When you're gone, / gone. /

Dee-duh do-do-do, / duh-duh do-do-do, / duh-da da-da-da... /

Forgive me, honey, I was blind; /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone. /
You know I'll miss you when you're gone, /
When you're gone, / gone. /
Gone, gone. /
Gone, gone.
