Lyrics


SHE'S AS GOOD AS GONE

By: Frank Zaruba
(1)


SHE HASN'T PACKED HER SUITCASE YET.
NO GOODBYE NOTE, HAS SHE LEFT.
STILL, I GET THE FEELIN'
SOMETHING'S WRONG.
SHE STILL KEEPS HOUSE ALL SPIC AND SPAN.
TELLS EVERYONE I'M STILL HER MAN.
BUT, I'M NOT FOOLED,
SHE'S AS GOOD AS GONE.

CHORUS

SHE'S STILL HERE IN THE FLESH
BUT, IN HER MIND SHE'S GONE.
AND SHE TRIES TO ACT,
AS IF THERE'S NOTHIN' WRONG.
WHEN I TURN OUT THE LIGHTS AT NIGHT,
AND EVERYTHING IS DARK AND QUIET.
SHE'S NEXT TO ME.
BUT, SHE'S AS GOOD AS GONE.

(2)

SHE HASN'T TOLD HER MOTHER YET.
GOODNIGHT KISSES I STILL GET.
SHE STILL PUTS MY MORNIN'
COFFEE ON.
SHE GETS ME OFF TO WORK ON TIME.
BUT, SOMEONE ELSE IS ON HER MIND.
IT SURE LOOKS BAD.
SHE'S AS GOOD AS GONE.

REPEAT CHORUS

End with: LORD, SHE'S LYING THERE,
BUT SHE'S AS GOOD AS GONE.
