I can't go any further now, only if you come with me Only if you can take my hand and hold me in your arms If you come and look into my eyes, I'll see it all more clearly All of the tears you've seen my cry You'll take them all away
If you come and open up my eyes and hold me Take me away and ease my mind Just come and hold me tight
Whenever you're gone it's lonely Whenever you're gone I can't face the light of day It's too many times I've been on my own With a burning in my heart
Whenever you're gone
Look at the face you see before you, can't you be open to me Can't you believe in what we have, don't throw it all away Believe me now don't criticise, it's only the beginning Can't you believe these desperate eyes, believe in what they say
If you come and open up my eyes and hold me Then I can open up my mind, and I will hold you tight
Whenever you're gone it's lonely Whenever you're gone I can't face the light of day It's too many times I've been on my own With a burning in my heart
I miss you so, and friends don't understand when I don't want to talk When you're gone I feel so alone And I can't sleep for crying, and deep inside I feel like dying
Whenever you're gone it's lonely Whenever you're gone I can't face the light of day It's too many times I've been on my own With a burning in my heart
