After you've gone
I can catch up on my reading
And after you've gone
I'll have a lot more time for sleeping
And when you're gone it looks like things are gonna be easier
Life will be much breezier
I really should be glad
But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
Bluer than blue
After you've gone
I'll have a lot more room in the closet
And after you've gone
I'll stay up all night long if I want to
And when you're gone
I can run through the house screaming
And no one will ever hear me
I really should be glad
But I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
(Bluer than blue)
I don't have to miss no TV shows
I can start my whole life over
Change the numbers on my telephone
But the nights would sure be colder
And I'm bluer than blue
Sadder than sad
You're the only life this empty room has ever had
Life without you is gonna be
Bluer than blue
Bluer than blue
