Since you’ve been gone
I miss you like a night without dawn
Or waking to no coffee in the morn.
My heart’s silent, my mind so unclear
I’m just so lonely, Lord I wish you were here.
Your absence is like Wi-Fi in a remote town,
I'm disconnected, feeling quite down.
I trawl your Facebook page trying to get some hint of you
Come back soon, my friend, I'm feeling so blue!
Like an SMS without a meme or a millennial without a phone,
I'm incomplete when I'm all alone.
Without your jokes and your smile so bright,
Life's a bit dull, day and night.
So hurry back, my dear, please come back
My life's a misery, I’m on the wrong track
I miss you more than words can construe,
Let's reunite soon, and help me to mend too.
~~~###~~~
You couldn’t live with me, I couldn’t live without
Somehow we had to compromise
How was I to know the solution
Would bring tears to my eyes.
~~~###~~~
You went away, you wanted to begin again
I stayed here trying to pick up the pieces of my life
A life so fickle and torn
That life a double edged knife
~~~###~~~
Since you’ve been gone, without you in my world
My life’s been difficult, it’s been so absurd
Like a lost sock in the laundry’s great fray
I wish you’d find your way back to me today
You’re the Yang to my Yin, you know it’s true
My life’s like a circus without a clown or two
I miss your laughter and contagious smile
Now that you haven’t been here in quite a while.
So hurry back, dear friend, don’t delay
Because I couldn’t stand another day
Without you in my life, it’s true
My life’s so empty without you.
~~~###~~~
Like the moon affecting the tides of the sea
You gaze on down and draw you near to me
But since you’ve been gone it’s nothing but a distant memory
Like a song from the past, you can’t remember the words or the melody
