Lyrics 'Til You Were Gone - Smokey Robinson, The Miracles

'Til You Were Gone

I always needed time on my own
I never thought I’d
Need you there when I cry
And the days feel like years when I’m alone
And the bed where you lie
Is made up on your side
When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you’re gone
The pieces of my heart are missin' you
When you’re gone
The face I came to know is missin', too
When you’re gone
The words I need to hear
To always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
I’ve never felt this way before
Everything that I do
Reminds me of you
And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor
And they smell just like you
I love the things that you do
When you walk away
I count the steps that you take
Do you see how much I need you right now?
We were made for each other
Out here forever
I know we were
Yeah, yeah
And all I ever wanted was for you to know
Everything I do, I give my heart and soul
I can hardly breathe;
I need to feel you here with me
Yeah
When you’re gone
The pieces of my heart are missin' you
When you’re gone
The face I came to know is missin', too
When you’re gone
The words I need to hear
Will always get me through the day
And make it okay
I miss you
