You've been gone, you've been gone
You've been gone one day, one day too long
I'm the kind of woman who understands
How the road can be so hard on a travelling man
I don't mind giving you a little room to breathe
But then you go and take advantage of my generosity
I'm home, waiting, alone, aching
Your time's run out 'cause
Yesterday this love could have been saved
Just crawl back out ain't no way
You've been gone, you've been gone
You've been gone one day, one day too long
See, I ain't a once in a while kind of thang
You see, love is being here for each other
Even with you standing right here, right now
Right in front of my face
You're still looking right through me
Well, let me clear something up for you honey
I called you up
Told you I was
Missing, needing to be soothed by you
Keep your reasons
I'm done pleasing
Ain't it funny now
I'm leaving
And you're the one who's being left behind
God sent me a man who will give me my time
You've been gone, you've been gone
You've been gone one day, one day too long
You've been gone
You've been gone one day, one day
You've been gone one day, one day
You've been gone one day, one day too long
Oh ain't it sad to see me go
You've been gone
One day, one day too long
