When Your Lover Has Gone Lyrics - At The Monterey Jazz Festival - Billie Holiday

Einar Aaron Swan 

What good is the scheming, the planning and dreaming 

That comes with each new love affair 

The dreams that we cherish, so often might perish 

And leaves you with castles in air 

When you're alone, who cares for starlit skies 

When you're alone, the magic moonlight dies 

At break of dawn, there is no sunrise 

When your lover has gone

What lonely hours, the evening shadows bring 

What lonely hours, with memories lingering 

Like faded flowers, life can't mean anything 

When your lover has gone
