Since You've Been Gone (by Aretha Franklin) Lyrics

Baby, baby, sweet baby
There's something I just gotta say
Baby, baby, sweet baby
You left me hangin' in a real cold way

Speak your name
And I feel a thrill
You said I do
And I said I will

I told you to just be true
And give me just a little time
Wait on me baby
I want you to be all of mine
I've just been so blue
Since you've been gone (whyd'cha do it, whyd'cha have ta do it)

Baby, baby, sweet baby
I didn't mean to run you away
It was pride on my lips
But not in my heart
To say the things I need ya to stay

But I need
Here and now
I don't know what I'm gonna do
Gotta get you back somehow

Take me back 
Consider me please
If you walk out that door
I can't get up off my knees
I've just been so blue
Since you've been gone (whyd'cha do it, whyd'cha have ta do it)

Whyd'cha do it, whyd'cha have ta do it (to fade)
