I'm Gone Lyrics

Background Vocals: R. Kelly

Everything you said to me
I took to heart
Boy that you never knew
Someday we'd part
Wanna be a playa see
Wanna mess around on me
Every night you hit the streets
Shoulda took care of family

All I do
(All I do is)
Is lie in my bed
(Is lie in my bed)
Lonely at night
(Late at night)
It ain't right
(That's why I gotta say goodbye)

1- Seven long years
Nothing but tears
Baby, I'm gone
Won't see me no more
Seven long years
Nothin' but tears
Baby, I'm gone
Won't see me no more

Say I wanna get down with you
You say you don't feel so well
Said you worked that double shift
My heart feels something else
So I went and checked it out
Cuz last week you said the same
Called up the Drake Hotel
You was under your middle name

All I do
(All I do is)
Is lie in my bed
(Lie there in my bed)
Lonely at night
(Waiting on you)
It ain't right
(To come home to me)

Repeat 1

Baby, anything you do to me
I've already done to you
And there's nothing you can say
And there's nothing you can do

Repeat 1

Repeat 1 while:
See I never really stopped loving you
I just got tired of putting up with your Miss
Been your fool
Seven years
I tell ya this move is something I won't regret
You can save the drama
You might as well run back to yo' baby's mama
Cuz by the time you wake up
I'll be long gone
Yes I will
Seven years of the life
All I did was sacrifice
Now I'm out the door
You won't see me no more
Seven years
Nothing but tears
Now I'm gone
You won't see me no more

1. Sparkle first started singing in her family's gospel music group. Sparkle met singer R. Kelly in while he was working on a male artist in 1989. Sparkle was the first and only successful artist to release an album on Kelly's Rockland label. Sparkle's debut album, the self-titled Sparkle, was released on May 19, 1998. The album debuted at No. 3 on the Billboard 200 and No. 2 on the R&B charts and was certified Platinum very soon after the release. The album is best known for the single "Be Careful," a 1998 duet with R. Kelly, which made it to two of Billboard's major airplay charts, peaking at No. 3 on the Rhythmic Top 40 and charted at No. 1 on Billboard's Hot R&B Airplay for six consecutive weeks, while also reaching No. 7 in the UK.[1]
Despite the success of her debut album, Sparkle and R. Kelly began to have creative differences while working on her second album, which led to her to ask to be released from Rockland/Interscope. She then signed with Motown Records, where she would release her second album Told You So in 2000.

2. A one off disco project who were responsible a self titled album and a single, Disco Madness / Down The Way, both released in 1979. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
