When You're Away

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)
