Start with not listening
Even 'bout the little things
Then you stop
Caring about what she tells you about her day
Take her for granted, along the time you share
Between what she does and what you miss
You'll wind up somewhere 'bout here
And she'll be gone
She'll be long gone
You'll be standing
Standing alone
You're gonna be devastated
Thinking 'bout how to get her back
Thinking what you wouldn't give for one last chance
While you're wishing you weren't on your own
She'll already be long, long gone
♪
Before she leaves
You'll get chances you don't deserve
Throw 'em away, and then regret you ever did
Keep on making excuses for everything
Keep on pushing the line
Making it worse, it'll leave you with this
She'll be gone
She'll be long gone
You'll be standing
Standing alone
You're gonna be devastated
Thinking 'bout how to get her back
Thinking what you wouldn't give for one last chance
While you're wishing you weren't on your own
She'll already be long, long gone
♪
Yeah, you're gonna be devastated
Thinking 'bout how to get her back
Thinking what you wouldn't give for one last chance
While you're wishing you weren't on your own
♪
Yeah, she'll be gone
She'll be long gone
You'll be standing
Yeah, you'll be standing alone
You're gonna be devastated
Thinking 'bout how to get her back
Thinking what you wouldn't give for one last chance
While you're wishing you weren't on your own
Standing there left behind, all alone
She'll already be long, long gone

Thinking what you wouldn't give
Wishing that you wouldn't be
Standing there left alone
Gonna be, gonna be gone
Gonna be, gonna be gone
Gonna be, gonna be long gone
Gonna be, gonna be gone
Gonna be, gonna be gone
Gonna be, gonna be long gone
