AWOL

There's no one else in the room

Nobody, nobody, no

It's only me and you

All alone, all alone

I cradled you with care

I held you

Of this love, I hope you were aware

Everybody could see

What all of you meant to me

That's what I get for bearin' my shoulders

And wearin' my heart on my sleeve

Clutchin' to straws of hope

In case you leave me broke

In the back of my mind

Was only a matter of time

I knew something was missing

Ah, baby, I knew something was missing

Oh

Though I could tell, yeah (Oh, my love)

I was still a regular at the wishing well (All the time)

No, something was missing, yeah (When you're asking me, my love)

No, it wasn't there

No, not anymore

Tell me what can be done

Anything, anything

I know you are the one

Not a stone, you're a gem, unlike them

Broke, but still can be fixed

That I promise

Only you show me what warmth is

Chasing your shadow in haste

Is pushing you further away

Upon a star, you've widened my grasp

I mention your name while I pray

We're playin' lovers' roulette

With no one left to protect

Only comin' to terms

With how your departure will burn

Baby, don't go missing

(Baby, don't go missing, now)

(Please)

(Oh, no)

Oh, baby, I knew something was missing

(When we could lose it)

(Oh, my baby)

(Don't know where you're goin', don't go far)

(Oh, no)

Oh, baby, don't go missing

(Oh, my baby, but it go so far away)

Oh, baby, I knew something was missing

(Please don't go far away)

(Baby, my baby, my baby)

Though I could tell, yeah

I was still a regular at the wishing well

No, something was missing, yeah

No, it wasn't there

No, not anymore
