Early in the mornin'
Before the crack of dawn,
Sittin' here thinkin'
Oh why was I born?
So broken hearted,
How can I go on?
Since you've been gone,
Since you've been gone.

I was so happy
With you by my side,
You told me you love me,
But honey you lied.
You left me here cryin',
How can I go on?
Since you've been gone,
Since you've been gone.

The night seems like a million years, Waitin' 'til the break of day appears,
All night long weepin' like a willow,
Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow,
Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.

Gonna go walkin'
By the railroad track,
I'm gonna let the choo-choo
Cross over my back.
Life ain't worth livin',
How can I go on?
Since you've been gone,
Since you've been gone.

All night long weepin' like a willow,
Tossin' and turnin' on my tear stained pillow,
Guess I'm gonna drown in my own tears.
Gonna go walkin' by the railroad track,
I'm gonna let the choo-choo
Cross over my back.
Life ain't worth livin',
How can I go on?
Since you've been gone,
Since you've been gone,
Since you've been gone.
Since you've been gone...
