Here's the thing, we started out friends 
It was cool but it was all pretend 
Yeah, yeah 
Since you've been gone 
You dedicated, you took the time 
Wasn't long 'til I called you mine 
Yeah, yeah 
Since you've 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 you've been gone 
I can breathe for the first time 
I'm so moving on 
Yeah, yeah 
Thanks to you 
Now I get what I want 
Since you've been gone 
How can I put it? You put me on 
I even fell for that stupid love song 
Yeah, yeah 
Since you've 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 you've been gone 
I can breathe for the first time 
I'm so moving on 
Yeah, yeah 
Thanks to you 
Now I get- get what I want 
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 you've been gone 
I can breathe for the first time 
I'm so moving on 
Yeah, yeah 
Thanks to you 
Now I get, I get what I want 
I can breathe for the first time 
I'm so moving on 
Yeah, yeah 
Thanks to you 
Now I get 
You should know 
That I get, I get what I want 
Since you've been gone 
Since you've been gone 
Since you've been gone
