When You're Gone Songtext
von The Milk Carton Kids

I′m sittin' in the midnight alone
Can′t bring myself to pick up the phone
So, I'm pickin' through the banjo tune
I learned from you

I wish, I wish I could forget
Atlanta in that hard August sweat
I asked you for a favor
You ain′t let me down, you ain′t let me down yet


The songs you loved to sing
They are still ringin' in my ears
The love you gave to me
I am still holdin′ on to, all these years

I'll burn this little satchel before long
The smoke will rise and carry your heart
But I will miss you when you′re gone
When you're gone

The songs you loved to sing
They are still ringin′ in my ears
The love you gave to me
I am still holdin' on to, all these years
