I wrote this probably just over a year ago, after my last relationship ended. Now that something else special has died, or more fittingly has evolved, I decided to dig it up and work on it:

- My Baby’s Gone Now -

Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
And my tears could fill the city’s streets
Oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.

Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
No more laughing with my soul alight
Oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
Oh-oh, and hear it in the black inside my breast
The part of me that knew what was for the best.
And now all direction has gone from me,
Left me wondering how down I could ever be.
Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.

Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
Everything I thought I could hold onto
Has gone below – And there’s nothing I can do!
Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.

Oh-oh, Everything! Everything I thought I knew!
Is torn - Is torn in two!
Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.
Oh-oh, oh-oh, my baby’s gone now.

My baby’s gone now.
