Ever Since You Left Lyrics
Derald Cannon Jr
( 1)
You got a new life
You got your best friend
But I know that you’re sitting somewhere right now wondering if all the pain inside you will end
I know you’re hurting and I should leave you alone but I wonder if I can get you on the phone
Somehow I feel like if I tried I would just get a ring tone
So now
If I see you
If I just get the day
I’d lie and say
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”
Even though you’re still on my mind
I’d just say
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”

Earlier today I told my assistant to
“Bring me a bottle of wine from 1982”
Because it reminds me of you
I told him
“Make sure it’s red of course”
And after a few glasses
And some puff and passes
I’m starting to miss you
You know you didn’t have to go
You promised you wouldn’t
But for whatever reason you still did
So now
If I see you
If I just get the day
I would turn away
So I wouldn’t have to say
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”
I’d say
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”

Nowadays I think of you less
And cleaned up the mess
I used to think you was so prefect for me
But i got over that and you
I think I always kind of knew
We wasn’t meant to be
But at first
And while you was around
I just didn’t wanna see
You made me feel like I belonged
But I treated you wrong
So you left and will find a man
Who is gonna treat you right
Now I’ll have to keep on saying
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”
(So fine)
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”
(You’re still on my mind)
“Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine”
(All of the time)

We used to stay on the phone until daylight
I loved hearing your voice all night
You used to make me feel alright
Me and you used to be so tight
But I just need you to know
Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine
Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine
(Oh)
Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine
(Fine so fine)
(Still wish you were mine)
(All mine)
But
I think
Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine
Just in case you didn’t know
Ever since you left i’ve been doing fine
