The minute you're gone I cry
The minute you're gone I die
Before you walk out of sight
I'm like a child all alone at night
I stare into emptiness
I'm filled with such loneliness
The world goes from right to wrong
The minute you're gone
The minute you're gone, I see
How lonely a man I'd be
My life would be oh, so blue
If I couldn't be with you
The minute you're gone, I pray
The minute you're gone I say
Please don't be away too long
The minute you're gone
The minute you're gone I see
How lonely a man I'd be
My life would be oh, so blue
If I couldn't be with you
The minute you're gone, I pray
The minute you're gone I say
Please don't stay away too long
The minute you're gone
