You'll Be Gone Lyrics

This song, oddly enough, reminds me of my late 'aunt'.. Whenever she was in a relationship with a man, she would constantly hide her true self, physically and emotionally - before they woke up, she would apply her makeup and get back into bed so they would always wake up to a pretty, but unfortunately fake face. I suppose she was afraid of completely letting them know who she was?

She was always up and about, confident and street smart. Observant and maybe a little doubtful inside, though? That'd make sense by the first verse. And the entire song; she wishes to give the man her all but she can't stop believing she'll never be anything special, even though he might actually be capable of loving her.

"She knows by this time tommorrow you'll be gone, you'll be gone" - This pretty much sums it up. She tries to hard to be perfect for him, but in the back of her mind she knows it probably wouldn't work out.
