Lyrics
I?m long Gone
You once said that you would never leave me
Not in a million years
You once said that you would love me forever
And to have no fears
Well now it?s my turn to let you know how I feel
Well I?ve waited on you, but I?m not any longer
I?ve seen the way it?s going to turn out
And there ain?t no doubt you ain?t the one for me
I?m better than that, yeah I?ve put up with you too long
Baby I?m long gone
All those things that I trying to make ends meet
Wasn?t good enough
All those days that I spent being by your side
Was just too rough
Well now it?s over, you missed your chance
Well I?ve waited on you, but I?m not any longer
I?ve seen the way it?s going to turn out
And there ain?t no doubt you ain?t the one for me
I?m better than that, yeah I?ve put up with you too long
Baby I?m long gone
And I?ll be thinking of you as time passes on
Maybe you?ll realize what you had after I?m gone.
Cause I waited on you, but I?m not any longer
I?ve seen the way it?s going to turn out
And there ain?t no doubt you ain?t the one for me
I?m better than that, yeah I?ve put up with you too long
Baby I?m long gone
