Gone (rehearsal sequence)

by Miles Davis

Lyrics
There’s a thousand words that I could say
To make you come home (yeah)
Seems so long ago you walked away
And left me alone
And I remember what you said to me
You were acting so strange
And maybe I was too blind to see
That you needed a change

Was it something I said, to make you turn away
To make you walk out and leave me cold
(Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh Ohh)
If I could just find a way
To make it so that you were right here
right now

Chorus:
I’ve been sittin here
Can’t get you off mind
I try my best to be a man and be strong
I drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face (touch your face)
But the truth remains you’re gone
(you’re) Gone
(baby you’re) Gone
(girl you’re gone. Baby girl you’re)
Gone
(you’re) Gone
(you’re)

Now I don’t wanna make excuses baby
Won’t change the fact that your gone (no, no)
But if there’s something that I could do
Won’t you please let me know
The time is passing so slowly now
Guess, that’s my life without you
(Guess, that’s my life without you)
And maybe I could change my every day
But baby I don’t want to

I’ll just hang around and find some things to do
To take my mind off missing you (take my mind off missing you)
And I know in my heart you can’t say that you don’t love me too
Please say you do
Yeah...

Chorus:
I’ve been sittin here (sitin’ here)
Can’t get you off mind (get you off my mind)
I try my best to be a man and be strong
(my best to be a man and be strong)
I drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
(Wishing I could touch your face)
But the truth remains
(truth remains you’re)
gone
(you re) Gone
(you re) Gone
(you re gone)
(you re) Gone
(you re) Gone

What will I do
If I can’t be with you
Tell me where will I turn to
Baby, who will I be
Now that we are apart
Am I still in your heart
Baby why don’t you see
That I need you here with me
Ohh...

I’ve been sittin here (sitin’ here)
Can’t get you off mind (Can’t get you off mind)
I try my best to be a man and be strong
(my best to be a man)
I drove myself insane
Wishing I could touch your face
(Oh could you baby)
But the truth remains
(the truth remains you’re gone)

I’ve been sittin here (sitin’ here)
Can’t get you off mind (Can’t get you off mind)
I try my best to be a man and be strong
(my best to be a man)
I drove myself insane (ohh)
Wishing I could touch your face (ohh)
But the truth remains
(Ohh ohh baby the truth is you’re)

gone
(you’re) Gone
(you’re) Gone
(you’re gone)
(baby girl you’re) Gone
(you’re) Gone
But the truth remains you’re
Gone
