with you not here

The Zombies

Once we were close
Never apart
You always were the one who had my heart
I get so cold
Without your flame
I lie awake at night
And I call your name

With you not here
What is there
No feeling left beyond the tears
There s only an empty space
Where once we crowded our hopes
And shared all our dreams
Since you ve been gone
I ve missed you so
No matter how I try
I can t let go
I can t believe
You ve gone away
The colour s faded now
The world is grey

With you not here
I m left with
Only the will to disappear
And I don t know what else to do
Except to peer into the mist

And I will never say goodbye
The things we did
Remain with me eternally
Don t know where I go from here
Cause there s really nothing clear
Beyond the tears

And the rain keeps falling
And the rain keeps coming on down
Oh the rain keeps falling
Like a refrain keeps coming around
And around and around
With you not here
I m left with
Only the will to disappear
No rainbow to wrap around me as I
Peer into the mist

And I won t ever say goodbye
The things we did
Remain with me eternally
Don t know where I go from here
Cause there s really nothing clear
Beyond the tears
