When Love Has Gone - Rick James

作词：Rick James

作曲：Rick James

Girl you're old enough to know

The way your life should be

Why then do you always

Ask your mother and me

Chances are our future's are over

Said and done

The battle now is over

And the war I have won

Think that over

While you're lying in your sleep

At night

You and me we could

Have made it baby baby

But you walked out of my life

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Now my love is gone

Girl I see no further reason

For me to carry on

This will be the last time

I write to you in song

My heart's an open secret

Your love has closed the door

It's over

Like the time

That's passed away til' now

How much longer will

I suffer baby baby

Must I bear this pain and smile

Now my love is gone

Gone gone gone

It's gonna be hard to carry on

Look at me baby

Haven't you ever seen

A grown man cry

Don't it look funny sugar

Watchin' tears fall from his eyes

Yes indeed I cry cry

Girl to see my life without you

Is more than I can stand

Picture me an empty hollow

Shell of a man

Caged within

A feelin' that one day you'll return

Knowing that can never be

My flesh starts to burn

Don't you care baby

Don't you even feel the pain

And hurt

I'm goin' through

If you really really

Really cared baby baby

You'd know

What I'm goin' through

Now my love is gone

Gone gone gone

Gonna be so hard to carry on

Look at me baby

Haven't you ever seen

A grown man cry

Don't it look funny sugar

Watchin' tears fall from his eyes

Won't you tell me why

Oh why

Oh why

Oh why has it gone
