The thrill is gone,
The thrill is gone away,
The thrill is gone, baby.
The thrill is gone away,
You know you done me wrong, baby,
And you'll be sorry someday.
The thrill is gone,
It's gone away from me,
The thrill is gone, baby.
The thrill is gone away from me,
Although, I'll still live on,
But so lonely I'll be.
The thrill is gone,
It's gone away for good,
All the thrill is gone,
Baby, it's gone away for good,
Someday I know I'll be open-armed baby,
Just like I know, I know I should.
You know, I'm free, free now, baby.
