Well, the sun
Is surely sinking down
But the moon
Is slowly rising
So this old world
Must still be
Spinning around
And I still love you

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes
It's all right
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing
The blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone
When I'm gone

It won't be long
Before another day
We gonna have a good time
And no one's gonna take
That time away
You can stay
As long as you like

So close your eyes
You can close your eyes
It's all right
I don't know no love songs
And I can't sing
The blues anymore
But I can sing this song
And you can sing this song
When I'm gone
Oooh, when I'm gone
Oooh, when I'm
