## Lyrics
[verse]
The house is quiet, the porch light's dim,
I keep on waiting, but there's no him,
No footsteps coming down the lane,
Just empty rooms and window panes.

[chorus]
Gone, gone, why did you have to go,
Gone, gone, and left my heart so low.
Gone, gone, the love we used to know,
Gone, gone, like the melting snow.

[verse]
I still hear echoes of your voice,
I still regret we had no choice.
The clock ticks on, the days grow long,
Since the morning that you were gone.

[chorus]
Gone, gone, why did you have to go,
Gone, gone, and left my heart so low.
Gone, gone, the love we used to know,
Gone, gone, like the melting snow.

[bridge]
Maybe someday the ache will fade,
Maybe someday I won't feel afraid.
But tonight I'm still alone,
Missing you now that you're gone.

[chorus]
Gone, gone, why did you have to go,
Gone, gone, and left my heart so low.
Gone, gone, the love we used to know,
Gone, gone, like the melting snow.
