When You're Away
Words by Douglas Heyes Jr.

WHEN YOU'RE AWAY

When you're away
The whole world seems to fade away
Into shades of Winter Gray
When you're away
Day turns into Night
Before the Night turns into Day
The hours and the minutes
All just seemed to tick away
And everything I see and hear
Reminds me of Yesterday

I wake up in the morning
And I can't believe you're gone
Love is something more
Than just the music to a song
I just can't remember
Where it all went wrong
If Love is not forever
Is it really there at all
A siren song of fantasy
That echoes off the wall

When you're gone
The world turns into watercolors
That slowly fade away
When you're gone
The Moonlight on the Water
Doesn't shimmer anyway
The promise of tomorrow
Is a million miles away
And when it comes, tomorrow
Will be just another day

When You're Away
I'd trade a lifetime for a day
When You're Away
Nothing really matters anyway
I'll sing the same old songs
And wonder why you're gone
I wonder if I'll find you
Down this road we travel on

When You're Away.... (FADE)
