I read the paper, turn on the news
And wear the floors out wondering what to do, oh
The sun is bright, but it doesn't shine
I've tried to fight it, but it happens every time
When you're gone (gone__)
Day is night
When you're gone (when you're gone__)
It's an uphill fight
When you're gone (ooh ooh oooh)
Baby, nothing, nothing's right
I'm going crazy, sinking like a stone
My friends are calling saying, "Don't sit home alone", but
It's not the same with anybody else
And it won't be long 'til I'm talking to myself
When you're gone (gone__)
Day is night
When you're gone (when you're gone__)
It's an uphill fight
When you're gone (ooh ooh oooh)
Baby, nothing, nothing's right
So I watch that clock on the wall, not moving at all
Just frozen in time
And I don't mind letting you know I'm ready to go
Right out of my mind__
The morning after the night before
It's hard to tell the difference anymore
Instead of growing stronger, I'm just getting weak
Instead of killing time, I think it's killing me
When you're gone (gone__)
Day is night
When you're gone (when you're gone__)
It's an uphill fight
When you're gone (ooh ooh oooh)
Baby, nothing, nothing's right
Nothing's right
Oh, nothing's right
