Long Time Gone
Love's Departure: A Tale of Heartache and Long Goodbyes
Lyrics
You cheated me and left me lonely
You deceived me and left me in solitude
I tried to be your very own
I attempted to be exclusively yours
There'll be a day you'll want me only
There will come a day when you desire only me
But when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
But when I depart, it will be a significant period of absence
Be a long time gone
It will take a long time before my return
Be a long time gone
It will be a substantial duration before I come back
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Indeed, when I depart, I'll be absent for an extended period
You're gonna be sad, you're gonna be weepin'
You will experience sadness, weeping, and loneliness
You're gonna be blue and all alone
You will feel sorrowful and be left alone
You'll regret the day you seen me weepin'
You will regret witnessing me in tears
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Because when I leave, it will be a considerable time before my return
Be a long time gone
It will be a lengthy period before I come back
Be a long time gone
It will take a substantial duration before I return
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I depart, I'll be absent for a long time
You'll see my face through tears and sorrow
You will see my face reflecting tears and sorrow
You'll miss the love you called your own
You will miss the love that you once considered your own
Baby, there'll be no tomorrow
There won't be a future, no tomorrow
'Cause when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Because when I leave, it will be a substantial period of absence
Be a long time gone
It will take a long time before my return
Be a long time gone
It will be a considerable duration before I come back
Yes, when I leave, I'll be a long time gone
Yes, when I depart, I'll be absent for an extended period
