I'm still hurtin' from the last time You walked on this heart of mine I can't find much to believe in You let me down so many times Heaven knows how I love you But I'm tired of holding on You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me when I'm gone Not much chance we're gonna make it If I'm the only one who's trying You know I'm running out of reasons We're running out of time Someday, girl, you're gonna wake up And wonder what went wrong You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me when I'm gone You're good at going through the motions All I hear are alibis Now I get this empty feeling When I look into your eyes I don't see the love light shining I don't know what's going on You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me when I'm gone You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me when I'm gone Oh oh you're gonna miss me when I'm gone You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me, you're gonna miss me when I'm gone You better kiss me 'Cause you're gonna miss me when I'm gone Oh oh you're gonna miss me when I'm gone
