If You’re Gone Lyrics

[Verse:]
If I need you, if to me you're everything
If I have you, if I love you just the same
If you're here, the night is likely going to fall
If you're gone, I'll see the daylight and that's all
If I stand alone understanding what is now
If I ever need someone to show me how
If the daylight can be hidden by the sun
If you're gone, then I'll know I will need someone

If I love you, if I know how much I care
If I find the things you are then anywhere
If I know you, I may never know your name
If you're gone then there is nothing that remains

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
