When I'm away from you I can't stay still My thoughts won't move from the way I feel It happens time and time again And the circle never ends When I'm away from you it hurts to say My sense is gone so far away I'm up all through the night And I can't tell wrong from right When I'm away from you I see grey big clouds In the fog and rain all the lonely crowds Seems to be so blue Every night I'm missing you When I'm away from you the sun don't shine And the moon don't come, the words don't rhyme When I'm away from you I can't let go And you know, oh, you know It's all the things you do that make life worth while Like the way you talk and the way you smile The things you do that keep me hanging on And you know, oh, you know When I'm away from the wine won't flow The tides don't turn and the wind don't blow I'm up all through the night And I can't tell wrong from right ♪ When I'm away from you the sun don't shine And the moon don't come, the words don't rhyme When I'm away from you I can't let go And you know, oh, you know It's all the things you do that make life worthwhile Like the way you talk and the way you smile It's all the things you do keep me hanging on And you know, don't you know When I'm away from you, well it hurts to say My sense is gone so far away Happens time and time again And the circle never ends When I'm away from you, my boy When I'm away from you, my little boy (When I'm away from you) (When I'm away from you) When I'm away from you, my boy Oh, my little boy (When I'm away from you) The wine won't flow (When I'm away from you) Oh, no, no
