Ben Folds - Gone Lyrics






I thought I'd write, I thought I'd let you know
In the year since you've been gone I've finally let you go
And I hope you find some time to drop a note
But if you won't
Then you won't
And I will consider you gone

I know that you went straight to someone else
While I worked through all this sh*t here by myself
And I think that you should spend some time alone
But if you won't
Then you won't
And I will consider you gone

I wake up in the night
All alone and it's alright
The chemicals are wearing off
Since you've gone

The days go on, the lights go off and on
And nothing really matters when you're gone
If you think that you feel nothing at all
If you don't (If you don't)
Then you don't (No, you won't)
If you won't
Then you won't
And I will
Then I will
Yeah, and I will consider you gone

    When I hear this song I feel like I'm 5 in the dining room of my old house with my family before all responsibility. Makes me sad in a happy way.

  14. A.... H....

    Sometimes you just want a good, melodic kiss-off with a great, hooky chorus and a little venom to counter the sweetness. So, all you jilted lovelies bruised and wounded by romance: I give you Ben Folds for your Saturday delectation. Enjoy.

    A.... H....

    @Antoinette Herrera my God, you've come back with "I should hope so"; ->game, set, match. Marry me? (we will need a prenup though of course)

    A.... H....

    Fantastically worded comment, and it just so happens to be Saturday as I type this reply. Great song.

    A.... H....

    Her punctuation is incorrect.

    A.... H....

    Beautifully written. That's @ Antoinette Herrera and Ben.

  16. T.... M....

    Ben Folds is my favorite <3

  17. F.... ....

    various comments, and I could say the same to you about yours being badly worded to myself. We are both at fault then.

  18. F.... ....

    Well man you can take it however you would like to take it, but there is no need for negative language in this. I realize this is the internet and everything is read as if the person is either a contemptible, sarcastic jerk or a sheep most of the time, and I am sorry for not specifying enough for everyone. The whole respect thing comes down to misconceptions though. I never implied this was a bad song at all at its core value. In any case we both weren't negative with what we were saying in our

  19. F.... ....

    And by the way its not just a I-III-V. It is a I-III-IV-V.

  20. F.... ....

    Haha I was just making an observation. I realize chord progressions are something utilized by every genre, band, or composer etc. you can name, and yes this is a common one as you just told me. Doesn't change what the listener hears and relates it to tonally. Thanks for that.

  21. n.... ....

    @KevinCasey7 This came out before "If you C Jordan" but only by a little over a month. Hmm...

  22. K.... ....

    All i can hear is "If you C Jordan" by Something Corporate. it's really similar... not the lyrics tho of course.

  23. A.... ....

    I've been singing this song for 3 weeks now and I couldn't find it anywhere on youtube SO happy I found it

  24. F.... ....

    Holiday by Weezer lol

  25. R.... E....

    @theguyonthepenny64 I know man right? I remember hearing that he had an upcoming album interview for what album I do not know but when he went to it he answered one question by saying piano rock is dead and then walked out lol

  26. R.... B....
