"While You're Gone" lyrics

She can't stand to spend a night alone
So she leaves a message on my phone
Broken words, the story's still unknown
Let it go
Just let it go

And ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh, hoo, hoo (Yeah)
Ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh, hoo, hoo

Everybody wants to see her shine
There's a star that's burnin' out tonight
And I'm dyin' just to make it right
Sayin' don't let go
No, don't let go

When you're ready to come home
I'll be here with open arms
When you're fighting through the storm
There's no need to be alone
'Cause I'll be waiting, I'll be waitin'
While you're gone
While you're gone

There's a poison runnin' through her head
Her father's words are always left for dead
The mirror's shattered like her confidence
But she's beautiful, so beautiful

Oh, when you're ready to come home
I'll be here with open arms
When you're fighting through the storm
There's no need to be alone
'Cause I'll be waiting, I'll be waitin'
While you're gone
While you're gone
Mmm-mmm, oh-oh

There's still more to say
So don't be gone too long
Keep your spirit strong

And ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh, ooh-hoo
Ooh-hoo, hoo-ooh-ooh, ooh-hoo

When you're ready to come home
I'll be here with opened arms
When you're fighting through the storm
There's no need to be alone
'Cause I'll be waiting, I'll be waitin'
While you're gone
While you're gone, mmm-mmm

While you're gone
