Lyrics
Why Can't You Just Be Gone
Copyright Sonny B. Bell
all rights reserved.
You keep saying you don't love me
You don't care anymore
You've said you're gonna leave me
A hundred times before
I don't know what I'm doin'
That keeps you hangin' on
You've said you're leavin' long enough
Why can't you just be gone
If you're waitin' for permission
To get on out of here
You've got my solemn promise
That I won't interfere
So get up and get movin'
You're takin' way too long
You've said you're leavin' long enough
Why can't you just be gone
CHORUS:
Why can't you just be gone
Instead of always goin'
You're like a cold North wind
That never will stop blowin'
I wish that you could be
Like the frost out on the lawn
When the sun comes up tomorrow
Why can't you just be gone
(Repeat chorus)
When the sun comes up tomorrow morn
Why can't you just be gone
