While You Were Gone Lyrics - Kelly Price

Hmm, whoa, yeah, oh baby, hmm, oh 

I read you wrong 

You said you'd only be away a while 

But the days turned into weeks 

And all the weeks into miles 

Baby why? 

You could've told me you were telling me goodbye 

Could've come clean and let me walk away in style, oh 

Funny thing is 

While I was missing you 

While I was figuring what I was gonna do

1 - I got wise, I got hip 

I caught on to your tricks 

I got over it real quick, yeah baby 

While you were gone 

Now I'm cool, can't you tell 

Feel so good about myself 

A funny thing happened to me baby 

While you were gone 

Oh, you looked surprised 

Like no one ever left you and survived, no 

Well leaving me alone has kind of opened my eyes 

Baby you, you gave me the time to find somebody new 

And I found strength inside me I never knew, oh 

Funny thing is 

While he was holding me 

While he was showing me how it's suppose to be 

Repeat 1

Repeat 1 with ad-libs by Kelly 

Didn't freak, didn't cry 

I just held my head up high 

I learned how to say goodbye 

While you were gone 

Had time on my hands 

Baby don't you understand 

A funny thing happened to me baby 

While you were gone 

Had nothing but time on my hands 

Learned how to understand boy 

Got over you, got over you, oh 

While he was holding me 

While he was showing me how it's suppose to be 

Oh baby 

Repeat 1 

While you were gone, oh 

Learned to lie, learned a lesson 

Learned how to get along, learned how to be strong 

Learned how to love myself, while you were gone, ooh, oh
