When You're Gone

I'm sittin' in the midnight alone

Can't bring myself to pick up the phone

So, I'm pickin' through the banjo tune

I learned from you

♪

I wish, I wish I could forget

Atlanta in that hard August sweat

I asked you for a favor

You ain't let me down, you ain't let me down yet

The songs you loved to sing

They are still ringin' in my ears

The love you gave to me

I am still holdin' on to, all these years

♪

I'll burn this little satchel before long

The smoke will rise and carry your heart

But I will miss you when you're gone

When you're gone

The songs you loved to sing

They are still ringin' in my ears

The love you gave to me

I am still holdin' on to, all these years
