When You’re Not Near Me – Dan Fogelberg – letras

When you’re not near meThe time don’t seem to move as easyWhen you’re not near meThe sun don’t seem to feel the sameThe days don’t shine as brightlyAnd the nights don’t taste as sweetAnd this soul of mine feelsLost and incompleteWhen you’re not near meWhen you’re not near meI make the sound of one hand clappingWhen you’re not near meI leave no footprints in the sandAnd I can find no solaceIn the lonely silver seaI’m only half as strong and half as freeWhen you’re not near meWhen you’re not near meDon’t be long my loveOh, don’t be long my loveIt won’t be long untilI hold you in my arms againWhen you’re not near meThere is no laughter in my spiritWhen you’re not near meThere is no spirit in my laughYou are like a magnet to that iron part in meAnd this longing never seems to let me beWhen you’re not near meWhen you’re not near me
