lyrics

i'll miss you when you're gone
i'll miss you every day
back-tracking on the things
i never got to say
it's time for being strong
surviving, holding on
i'll miss you when you're gone

i never got the chance,
the chance to say goodbye
you side stepped out of sight,
and faded from my life
you faded into dust
move on from here i must
i'll miss you when you're gone

it sometimes takes a lifetime to discover
that some pretend,
but no one knows the answer
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore

i'll miss you when you're gone
of that there is no doubt
the autumn winds may blow
my windows inside out
i'll ache all winter long,
till springtime follows on
i'll miss you when you're gone

it sometimes takes a lifetime to discover
that some pretend,
but no one knows the answer
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore
you've got to ride the tide
before you reach the shore
