Here's the thing, we started out friends It was cool but it was all pretend

Yeah, yeah

Since you been gone

You dedicated, you took the time

Wasn't long 'til I called you mine

Since you been gone

And all you'd ever hear me say

Is how I pictured me with you

That's all you'd ever hear me say

But since you been gone

I can breathe for the first time

I'm so movin' on, yeah, yeah

Thanks to you

Now I get what I want

Since you been gone

How can I put it? You put me on

I even fell for that stupid love song

Since you been gone

How come I'd never hear you say

"I just wanna be with you"?

Guess you never felt that way

I'm so movin' on, yeah, yeah

Thanks to you

Since you been gone

You had your chance, you blew it
