when you are away

you packed your bags, you were ready to go
I sat jus infront of you my heart went to and fro
"I will leave tomorrow early", you said
"can you stay a little longer", a voice in my head
you looked at me with all those love filled in your eyes
held my hand as tears left my eyes
what am I to do when you are away
how am I to stay when you aren't there
take me with you, I know you cannot
but where am I to go when you are away

you kissed my lips as you were to leave
cuddled me as a baby when I was in a deep sleep
while I dreamt we painted the mountains together
you quietly left me alone to wither
what am I to do when you are away
how am I to stay when you aren't there
take me with you, I know you cannot
but where am I to go when you are away

moment by moment I counted the time
even a while seemed a long lost night
your feel, your voice in your absence obsessed me
I flew to your place everytime I closed my eyes to sleep
when I woke up I was at the same place you left me
not knowing how to live when you aren't here

in the loneliness I talked to your picture
wondering how would you be without me dear
my eyes were set on the road you walked
wishing if today you'd be walking back
because what am I to do when you are away
how am I to stay when you aren't there
take me with you, I know you cannot
but where am I to go when you are away
