When I'm Away From You Lyrics - Kim Carnes

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 has 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 gray big clouds 

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 hangin' on 

And you know, don't you know? 

When I'm away from you and the rhyme won't flow 

The tide 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 hangin' on 

And you know, don't you know? 

When I'm away from you, well, it hurts to say 

My sense has gone so far away 

It 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 

When I'm away from you 

When I'm away from you 

When I'm away from you 

When I'm away from you 

When I'm away from you
