Clark, Petula - Now That You've Gone Lyrics






Why does all the world pass me by?
Why does no one hear when I cry?
Why do lonely arms long for you?
Why can't I believe that it's true?

Now, that you've gone
Gone, gone away
Gone, gone, gone away

Why is there a dawn but no day?
Why do all the stars fade away?
Why are shadows hiding the sun?
Why do I have nowhere to run?

Now, that you've gone
Gone, gone away
Gone, gone, gone away

Where are all the dreams that we knew?
Whoever said dreams all come true?
Where are they now?

Why must life go on anymore?
Why do I want you more and more?
Why do I go on asking why?
When you'll be my love till I die?

Why have you gone
Gone, gone away
Gone, gone, gone away?

Where are all the dreams that we knew?
Whoever said dreams all come true?
Where are they now?

Why must life go on anymore?
Why do I want you more and more?
Why do I go on asking why?
When you'll be my love till I die?

Why have you gone
Gone, gone away
Gone, gone, gone away
From me?

Clark, Petula Now That You've Gone Comments
  1. E.... D....

    Se te ne vai - The Italian version is magnificent also. She sings it like a teen girl voice who fall in love for the first time. If I ever have a daughter, I'll sure play it for her, may be she will have a good taste for music.

  2. Z.... ....

    Great song with a fantastic cover by Doopees & Yann Tomita on the album "Doopee Time"

  3. E.... G....

    Petula I love you, forever!

  4. R.... H....

    A majestic piece of songwriting by petula who is so amazing and on top form now at the age of 86 still bringing wonder and joy into the world

  5. d.... ....

    my favorite Petula Clark song. Just beautiful.

  6. d.... ....

    Beautiful, powerful & haunting song sung powerfully by Petula Clark. Connie Stevens does a very weak job singing this song, and ironically it is the only version on iTunes.

  7. J.... J....

    This is such a great song, by someone who has an awesome voice. Petula Clark delivers every song with such conviction and love. Her tour in 2017 will bring her to California - to see such a legend perform will be short of amazing!

    J.... J....

    nothing short of amazing :)

  8. A.... H....

    And yet another flawless performance.

  9. d.... ....

    What a wonderful and haunting song of a musical history so long gone. Simply beautiful. Peace.

  10. C.... C....

    Great cover version by Sharon Tandy too.

  11. J.... F....

    I'm a big fan of Petula Clark and have been since I first heard Downtown in late 1964, and even bought this album then. I just want to thank you for posting some of the less-known songs not only for fans but for people who don't know these songs to discover. Sounds great!

  12. m.... ....

    Petula  wrote the music to this!

  13. M.... L....

    So touching....emotional! I love you Hany my honey!

  14. T.... N....

    Always loved the song as it is full of heart. I had no idea Petula recorded it as my 45 is by Connie Stevens

    T.... N....

    Petula wrote the music

    I always play Petula's album that includes this song whenever I'm feeling nostalgic. It's easier to find music from the past thanks to the technology. But I dunno why I can't feel the the same relaxing mode if the music is coming from mp3 players or iPad. Nothing can replace the music coming from revolving platters. How I wish i could visit Philippines just to sit back and please my ears from our National Quadrosonic playing all the music I really enjoy listening.

  16. L.... R....

    Thanx there is a post for this song...memories keep flashing in whenever I hear this song...my happy days with my family and now that they are far from me...I feel the emptiness within me....for I am missing them so much! How I wish that I can join all of you soon in US! Missing all of you!!

  17. d.... ....

    Thank you for posting this song ~ I couldn't find it on any album anywhere since I had the album in the '60s ~ One of her most Beautiful songs ~

  18. �.... M....

    Excellent rare song of Petula. I'm not a fan of her but this song is so touching. The way she sings this heartbreaking song, makes feel the sadness from something ireparable. Underated tune for sure!
