When you’re next to me

I can do most anything

And everything’s ok it’s alright

When you’re close it seems 

That the world has stopped turning

And everything’s ok feels alright



But lonely days bring lonely nights

When you’re far away from me

I need to be with you



When you’re gone my heart is like a desert

With no water

A flower without rain or sun

Like a cold night

With no shelter 

I’m lost without your love

Like a river with no ocean

A mountain without sky or earth

Like a star falling from heaven

I’m lost without your love



When you’re here with me

Life is as sweet as it can be

And everything’s ok it’s alright

When you’re home it seems

That the world is safe at night

And everything’s ok feels so right



But lonely days bring lonely nights

When you’re far away from me

I need to be with you 



When you’re gone my heart is like a desert

With no water

A flower without rain or sun

Like a cold night

With no shelter 

I’m lost without your love

Like a river with no ocean

A mountain without sky or earth

Like a star falling from heaven

I’m lost without your love
