When You're Not Around

[Verse] Moonlight spills, shadows play on my wall, Echoes of your voice in the empty hall, Got a heart that's heavy, feels like a stone, When you're not around, I'm stranded alone. [Chorus] Every beat of silence cuts deep to the core, Footsteps fading, I can’t hear them no more, World tilts strange, can’t keep my feet on the ground, Nothing feels the same when you're not around. [Verse 2] Clock ticks slow, time a jealous thief, Stole your warmth, left me with this grief, I replay your laugh in a loop, my sound, But it fades too quick when you're not around. [Bridge] Sky’s got tears, pouring down like regret, My chest’s a drum, no rhythm to forget, Wind whispers secrets, haunting the trees, Every empty night, your absence agrees. [Chorus] Every beat of silence cuts deep to the core, Footsteps fading, I can’t hear them no more, World tilts strange, can’t keep my feet on the ground, Nothing feels the same when you're not around. [Outro] Faint hopes linger, mist in the air, I call your name but it vanishes there, A soul unmoored, drifting for the sound, Of your heartbeat near, when you're not around.
