Why Did You Go Lyrics & Chords By Lonnie Johnson

Since you been gone baby, nothing else seems the same.
Yes, since you been gone baby, nothing else seems the same.
Only just some more teardrops, heartaches, and pain.

If you know you was gonna leave me, why didn't you let me know?
If you know you was gonna leave me baby, why didn't you let me know?
'cause if my love couldn't please you, I would be willin' to let you go.

You didn't have to kiss me this morning, knowing that you were leaving home.
You didn't have to kiss me this morning, and know that you were leaving home.
I could see it baby, but I haven't did you nothing wrong.

I give you my love, my money, and I give you all my time.
Give you my love, my money, and I give you all my time.
And how could you leave me, with me on your mind?

Yes, I love you so much baby, I couldn't close my eyes.
Yes, I love you so much baby, I couldn't close my eyes.
My poor heart was aching so, could feel myself slowly die.

As good as I been to you, how could you do this to me?
As good as I been to you, how could you do this to me?
If you was tired baby, why didn't you tell me, then you coulda had your "used to be."

But go on baby, go on and have your fun.
Go on baby, go on and have your fun.
Because it's later than you think, this time cryin' ain't gonna help you none.

I look at the pictures on the wall, they begin to fade away.
Yes, the pictures on the wall, begin to fade away.
And my love for you baby, is dyin' day by day.
