Till I'm Gone

Twenty-one long miles away from you

Wait a minute, let's make that twenty-two

I feel like turning back just to kiss you

But somehow I know now that I'll miss you

So I stop and call you on the phone

Taking it for granted you're alone

I say when I get back I'll make it up to you

And that's what I plan to do

Don't know why our love can't get together

I never want to accept when you're not there

I never need you until I'm away from home

I forgot to say I love you 'til I'm gone

Now I pull in your driveway once more

You smile and wave there at the door

I give me one more chance and I blew it

Maybe I am happy but I don't know it

Don't know why our love can't get together

I never want to accept when you're not there

I never need you until I'm away from home

I forgot to say I love you 'til I'm gone

Don't know why our love can't get together

I never want to accept when you're not there

I never need you until I'm away from home

I forgot to say I love you 'til I'm gone

Don't know why our love can't get together

I never want to accept when you're not there

I never need you until I'm away from home
