"When You're Gone" lyrics

"When You're Gone"

Hold on to love
That is what I do
Now that I've found you
And from above
Everything's stinking
They're not around you

And in the night I could be helpless
I could be lonely sleeping without you

And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you

But I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey, baby!
And it's going to carry on
That is what I knew
Hey, baby

Hold on to my hands
I feel I'm sinking
Sinking without you
And to my mind
Everything's stinking
Stinking without you

And in the night I could be helpless
I could be lonely sleeping without you

And in the day, everything's complex
There's nothing simple, when I'm not around you

And I miss you when you're gone
That is what I do
Hey, baby!
And it's going to carry on
That is what I knew
Hey, baby
