After You're Gone - Cristiano Giuseppetti

There'll be laughter even after you're gone I'll find reasons to face that empty dawn Cause I've memorized each line in your face And not even death can ever erase The story they tell to me I'll miss you Oh, how I'll miss you I'll dream of you And I'll cry a million tears But the sorrow will pass And the one thing that will last Is the love that you've given to me There'll be laughter even after you're gone I'll find reasons and I'll face that empty dawn Cause I've memorized each line in your face And not even death could ever erase The story they tell to me

You're just a mile away One thousand five tiny steps from here But if I brought you near Would you believe when I say It seems like yesterday That I could reach out and touch your face But as I fall from grace Into whose arms can I lay It's always much too late We get the signs We can't communicate Or turn back time So what will be now Do you feel somehow Not so together and not quite as strong Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone I need a healing wind To cool the flame burning in my sight It must accelerate For two wrongs they don't make a right And all these solitaires, lone victories Wars fought in isolation, with none to please The future's still uncertain The past is done Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone Now I believe Alone doesn't have to mean lonely After you've gone

Now won't you listen honey, while I say, How could you tell me that you're goin' away? Don't say that we must part, Don't break your baby's heart You know I've loved you for these many years, Loved you night and day, Oh! honey baby, can't you see my tears? Listen while I say: After you've gone and left me cryin' After you've gone there's no denyin' You'll feel blue, you'll feel sad You'll miss the dearest pal you've ever had There'll come a time, now don't forget it There'll come a time when you'll regret it Someday, when you grow lonely Your heart will break like mine and you'll want me only After you've gone, after you've gone away After you've gone and left me cryin' After you've gone there's no denyin' You're gonna feel blue, and you're gonna feel sad You're gonna feel bad And you'll miss, and you'll miss, And you'll miss the bestest pal you ever had There'll come a time, now don't forget it There'll come a time when you'll regret it But baby, think what you're doin' I'm gonna haunt you so, I'm gonna taunt you so It's gonna drive you to ruin After you've gone, after you've gone away.
