The sun is gone away   It is dark in the day   No kids are laughing   And none are playing      No flowers have grown   Since the month of May   That's how it's been   Since you've gone again      One you left without a reason   Two without a pleasing   Three with a terrible pain   Four you're gone again      Picture a winter   Without any snow   Look up at the sky   There's no star that glow      Picture a river   With nowhere to flow   That's how it's been, honey   Since you've gone again      One without a reason   Two without a pleasing   Three with a terrible pain   Four you're gone again      I walked in the forest   Didn't see no trees   Go to sleep at night   With a cold wind of breeze      I ain't got no friends   I got cold enemies   That's how it's been   Honey, since you've gone again      Gone, gone again, gone, gone again   Gone mama, gone again, yes, you are   Where can I find you? I need you, darling      Where can I get to you? I want you, mama baby   I love you, darling, I need you, oh gone again   Come back to me, baby
