When You're Away Songtext
von Robert Ellis

When you′re away little things overwhelm me
When you're away nobody can tell me
If there′s any reason to get out of the bed
I open my eyes and see nothing

When you're away, I just don't feel like singing
Words come, but without any meaning
What did I do before you came along
And showed me how life could be?


When you′re here
I can finally catch my breath again
I′m only happy when you're here
Nothing makes me feel the way I feel when you′re here
Don't go away again

′Cause when you're away all I do is remember
When you′re away there are no waves on the water
Had I never met you I might never have known
Just how good life could be

Just yesterday (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ahh)
I was happy as a goldfish (Ooh-ooh-ooh)
Now I'm drowning in an ocean (Ahh, ahh)
Of what-ifs (Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
Don't think I′ll ever be the same (Ahh, ahh)
