[Verse 1]
The sun don't seem to shine on me no more
I find myself waiting by the door
Things just ain't the same
Since you've been gone
So I kill time waiting by the phone
Hoping that you'll call or just come home
Your side of the bed is cold and I'm alone
So I called mama and mama said:
"Son, let it go, move on"

[Chorus]
"'Cause she's gone, yeah, she's gone
Oh, she's gone, yeah, she's gone"
And I know, and I know
But what if mama was wrong?

[Verse 2]
At night I pace the floor and corridors
I'm a man of wealth but by myself I'm poor
So Lord, take this, take that
'Cause I can't take no more
She was all I'm living for

[Pre-Chorus]
And now she's gone
There's all this emptiness inside my home
Her side of the bed is cold and I'm alone
So I called mama and mama said:
"Son, let it go, move on"
[Chorus]
"'Cause she's gone; yeah, she's gone
Oh, she's gone; yeah, she's gone"
And I know, and I know

[Bridge]
Please just move on
(Please keep on)
Life will still keep going on
(Said life will keep on going on)
It's time to let her go
(It's time)
It's time to let her go and move on
(Time to let her go)

[Chorus]
And she's gone; yeah, she's gone (Oh, she's gone)
Oh, she's gone (Oh, she's gone); yeah, she's gone
And I know, oh, and I know
But what if mama was wrong?
She's gone (Oh, she's gone); yeah, she's gone
(Said she's gone away)
Oh, she's gone; yeah, she's gone
(I don't think I could make it another day)
And I know (And I know), and I know (Oh, I know)
[Outro]
What if mama's wrong?
Oh, oh, what if mama's wrong?
I know she's gotta be wrong, oh-oh
See, she's just coming home again
