Until You Were Gone

I didn’t know I was in love with you
Until you were gone
I was just lonely, I just needed someone
To share my nights with, to turn me on
I didn’t know I was in love with you
Until you were gone

I am not heartless, I am not thoughtless
But I can be careless as a child
I can blow caution in a smoke ring
And disappear into the wild

But I didn’t know about silence
Until you were gone
The last show’s over, the curtain is drawn
I never saw so many sunsets, I never saw a single dawn
I didn’t know about silence
Until you were gone

The record you gave me
I put it on
The needle didn’t jump this time, it played the whole song
It sang about all, it cried about none
I didn’t know I was in love with you
Until you were gone.
