"Ever Since The One I Love's Been Gone (2026)" lyrics - CECILE MCLORIN SALVANT

Answered the phone
But the phone didn't ring
I'm all confused about every little thing
I'm gone
I don't know right from wrong
Ever since the one I love's been gone

Heard a knock at the door
But no one was there
I sat on the floor
I forgot the chair
I'm gone
I've had the blues too long
Ever since the one I love's been gone

I'm acting silly
Don't tell me, I know
But what else can I do?
I love him, really
He knows it, I'm sure
But he's out there loving somebody new

So what can I say?
And what can I do?
I've got it bad
And he's gone to stay
I'm gone
I'm like a king without his throne
Ever since the one I love's been gone
Ever since the one I love has been gone
