Here's the thing we started out friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah yeah
Since U Been Gone

Your dedicated you took the time
Wasn't long till I called you mine
Yeah Yeah
Since U Been Gone

And all you'd ever hear me say 
Is how I pictured me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say

But Since U Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you 
(thanks to you)
Now I get 
(now I get) 
What I want
Since U Been Gone

How can I put it? You put me on. 
I even fell for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since U Been Gone

How come I'd never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way

But Since U Been Gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on
Yeah, yeah
Thanks to you 
(Thanks to you) 
Now I get 
(Now I get) 
What I want 
Since U Been Gone

You had your chance
(You had your chance) 
You blew it
Out of sight, out of mind
Shut your mouth I just can't take it
Again and again and again and again

Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone
Since U Been Gone 
Since U Been Gone 
Since U Been Gone
