When Your Lover Has Gone - Carmen McRae
For ages and ages the poets and sages
Of love wondrous love always sing
But ask any lover and you'll soon discover
The heartaches that romance can bring
When you're alone who cares for starlit skies
When you're alone the magic moonlight dies
At break of dawn there is no sunrise
When your lover has gone
What lonely hours the evening shadows bring
What lonely hours with memories lingering
Like faded flowers life can't mean anything
When your lover has gone
What lonely hours the evening shadows bring
What lonely hours with memories lingering
Like faded flowers life can't mean anything
When your lover when your lover and lover has gone
