If You Were Gone For A Little While

Verse 1

If you were gone forever

I would surely die

But if you were gone for a little while

Well, I might, might cry

Verse 2

If you were gone for a year or two

I'd find something new to do

But if I didn't find something new

Well, I'd surely miss you

Verse 3

And if I met someone just like you

She'd have to do

But she wouldn't be you

Verse 4

If you were gone forever

I couldn't live

But if you were here forever

I might never give

Verse 5

I might get used to your love

And take it for granted

Or maybe I'd grow to resent it

And you know how I am about this

Verse 6

I need you

But I don't need you

And that's the truth

But I can't live without you
