When i'm gone

When i'm gone Lyrics

(Dolly Parton)


You say that you're bored with life and that you're bored with me

'Cause you say that this love of ours ain't what it ought to be

Now you despise this little house that we've always called home

I know that you don't love me now, but you'll love me when I'm gone

Gone

You'll love me when I'm gone and then you'll realize just what I meant to you

You-oo-oo-oo

You'll miss me when I'm gone and then you'll realize how good I've been to you

You-ooo-ooo-ooo

You'll want me when I'm gone and then you'll realize you've loved me all along

Oh, it's true you may not love me now, but you'll love me when I'm gone

Gone


We've grown too familiar with each other, so you say

You say there's no excitement now. Too bad you feel that way

Well, I wonder how exciting that your life will be alone

Oh, I know you may not want me now, but you'll miss me when I'm gone

Gone


You'll love me when I'm gone and then you'll realize just what I meant to you

You-oo-oo-oo

You'll miss me when I'm gone and then you'll realize how good I've been to you

You-ooo-ooo-ooo

You'll want me when I'm gone and then you'll realize you've loved me all along

Oh, I know you may not want me now, but you'll miss me when I'm gone

Gone
