Now That You're Gone Lyrics

Well I can see heaven
See it all but the plane
If I start running now
I think I can make it
And never look back again

Your face is all around me
Keys are in my hand
Everywhere I go
I try to remember
Exactly who I am

Cause now that you’re gone
I can breathe
Now that you’re gone
I am free
Free to make a mess
Of everything
Cause nothing belongs to me
Now that you’re gone
I can breathe
I can breathe

We made a bed of roses
I got pricked by the thorns
On a long cold night
I still think I’m bleeding
I wake up all torn
I’m a missing person
Lost it all but my name
And I’m afraid that some long lonely road
Will lead me back to you again

Cause now that you’re gone
I can breathe
Now that you’re gone
I am free
Free to make a mess
Of everything
Cause nothing belongs to me
Now that you’re gone
Now that you’re gone
Now that you’re gone
Oh…

Cause now that you’re gone
I can breathe
Now that you’re gone
I am free
Free to make a mess
Of everything
Cause nobody’s watching me
Oh, now that you’re gone
I am free, oh yeah
Now that you’re gone
I can breathe
And now that you’re gone
I am free
Now that you’re gone
I can breathe

this song was better when it was called "since you've been gone"

Cover art for Now That You're Gone lyrics by Sheryl Crow

aww no, i think this song is in a different vein to "since u been gone". it's less positive, more despondent. rather depressing actually. it's a sarconic take on the usual "now you're gone i'm free" songs - cause even though he's gone, she's a mess and is lost.
