Here's the thing, we started out friends It was cool, but it was all pretend Since you been gone You're dedicated, you took the time Wasn't long 'til I called you mine Since you been gone And all you'd ever hear me say Is how I picture me with you That's all you'd ever hear me say But since you been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm moving on, yeah-yeah, thanks to you Now I get what I want Since you been gone ♪ How do I put it? You put me on I even fell for your stupid love song Since you been gone How come I'd never hear you say "I just wanna be with you"? I guess you never felt that way But since you been gone I can breathe for the first time I'm moving on, yeah-yeah, thanks to you Now I get what I want, mmm You had your chance, you blew it Out of sight, out of mind Shut your mouth, I just can't take it again And again and again Since you been gone ♪ Since you been gone
