"When You're not here"

Brian R. Baer


After so many years together,
Seems awful strange that we'd part,
When you walked out the door, forever;
I found you'd taken my heart.

When you're not here, the stars just don't light up!
I call out your name, but you don't come near;
Living without you is driving me crazy;
Come on back to me, I'll make up those tears.

If I felt that love was gone, I'd never feel so strongly;
Give me a chance, now, to make things right.
Please come back to me -- be mine, tonight!

'Cause when you're not here, the stars just don't light up!
I call out your name, but you don't come near;
Living without you is driving me crazy;
Come on back to me, I'll make up those tears.

That one mistake I made, took me away from your charms.
I love you more, now, than words can say;
I long to be in your arms!

Oh, when you're not here, the stars just don't light up!
I call out your name, but you don't come near;
Living without you is driving me crazy;
Come on back to me, I'll make up those tears.

Come back to me, love, that's all that I'm praying,
It will be better than ever before.
I can make up for the times that I've drifted,
I love you so much more than ever before.

When you're not here. Oh, oh. When you're not here. Oh, oh.
When you're not here. Oh, oh. When you're not here. Oh, oh.

After so many years together,
Seems awful strange that we'd part.
When you walked out the door, forever,
I found you'd taken my heart;
I found you'd taken my heart;
I found you'd taken my heart!
