LYRICS
even when you're gone

-Hello?
-Hey boo, it's me. I know it's been a while and all but I was thinking I could come over and you and me, you know, maybe we could get back with it?
-Who is this?

Even when you're gone I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
Baby, when you're leaving
You won't see me grieving
I don't even care--be on your way

You were on the road acting like a rolling stone
Wasn't sitting home alone with your silk scarf
I'm not still attached cos your love is in my past
Like the scratches on my back that you left behind

Even when you’re leaving
You won’t see me grieving
All you did was take up my time
Baby, when you're gone I still carry on
I don't even care--be on your way

Even when you're gone I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
Baby, when you're leaving
You won't see me grieving
I don't even care--be on your way

Your love was sweet but even when you're gone
I won't skip a beat cos I take what I want
You tried to play me, but my game will carry on and on
We both used each other underneath the covers
But only one of us was using you

Even when you're gone I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
Baby, when you're leaving
You won't see me grieving
I don't even care--be on your way

Even when you're gone I still carry on
All you did was take up my time
Baby, when you're leaving
You won't see me grieving
I don't even care--be on your way

-Girl, I should call him. He was trippin', acting like he didn't even know who I was … yeah, I told him that. I don't know what he's thinking. Girl, he got to remember me.

Your love was sweet

-Okay, I gotta go. I’m gonna call Sean.

We both used each other
Baby, be on your way
Take your silk scarf and drive
