whenever we are far apart
skies are grey and I am blue
the dark clouds weep in sympathy
I am lonely without you
my knowledge of arithmetic
tells me one plus one makes two
it isn’t hard to understand
why I’m lonely without you
the long nights have been plentiful
with many bleak days too
I live in hope of sunny morn
I am lonely without you
I have had my share of heartache
the good times have been so few
I dream of love tomorrow
I am lonely without you
time passes and I contemplate
if the words I write are true
or have I just convinced myself
I am lonely without you
the saddest thought I ever had
the worst moment I ever knew
was when I finally realised
I am lonelier with you
