about
Fun little tune. I’m pretty proud of that little guitar solo. Not bad for a singer-songwriter eh? This song is a reflection on a time when I was very interested in a gal, and she just wasn’t having it. It was a humbling experience, but I needed it. You can’t coerce love I suppose; no matter how bad you want it. “If you’re forcing her to think it’s meant to be, your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor”. Embarrassingly enough, my pride was the only cause for pain.
lyrics
Since She’s Gone
Well since she’s gone, I’ve run out of things to do
But I’ve written a song or two just to help me to feel all right
‘I don’t care what makes the world go round
As far as I’m concerned we’re all just gonna die’
They say that if its love, you’ve got to let her go
And if she comes back to you, brother it sure will show
But if you’re forcing her to think it’s meant to be,
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
Last I heard, she’d gone out to see some friends
To find someone to confide in, to help her to feel all right
How I wished they’d talk for hours about me
But my name had fled the scene before it had ever arrived
They say that if its love, you’ve got to let her go
And if she comes back to you, brother it sure will show
But if you’re forcing her to think it’s meant to be,
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
It can’t be, there’s been a mistake I’m sure
I’ve called ten times or more, she must have lost her phone
Or maybe, she’s gone down to Mexico, and just forgot to let me know
That she’d be back real soon
They say that if its love, you’ve got to let her go
And if she comes back to you, brother it sure will show
But if you’re forcing her to think it’s meant to be,
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
Oh if its love, you’ve got to let her go
And if she comes back to you, brother it sure will show
But if you’re forcing her to think it’s meant to be,
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
Your heart will end up lying in pieces on the floor
