When You're Not Here

[Verse 1]

Lost and awaiting my fate I wander

Far from your shelter, far from your love

Just like a lark in the midnight hour

The song I'm singing is just a sigh

[Chorus]

When you're not here the flowers don't blossom

When you're not here I'm lost on an ocean

And the night is long and always silent

Staring at a star that never shines

When you're not here nothing seems to matter

All hope is gone when you're not around

Helplessly waiting while my heart is breaking

Everything's blue when you're not around

[Verse 2]

When you are near me the dawn starts glowing

Bright as a morning beneath the sun

Yours is a love that could move a mountain

And life is laughter when you're around

[Chorus]

But when you're not here the flowers don't blossom

When you're not here I'm lost on an ocean

And the night is long and always silent

Staring at a star that never shines

When you're not here nothing seems to matter

All hope is gone when you're not around

Helplessly waiting while my heart is breaking

Everything's blue when you're not around
