American Dreamer - When You're Away Lyrics

I don’t feel quite the same when you are away
And now that I’m thinking I realize you’ve been gone for days
Down at the arcade there’s lovers
The kid in the glasses I swear that he’s been he for days

Wandering the streets I wonder what I’m doing tonight
Planes passing over, like people slip they through my mind
Float on the river for hours
The girls on the shore, they’ll be laughing the whole day away

When you think of tomorrow
Do you think of a life that’s whole
Cause when you’re away
There is nothing left for me to know

I cleaned the house, I took out the trash like you said
I made the sheets but it doesn’t put you in my bed
I had a dream that you left me
Awoke to find that you’re coming back home it’s today

I got Band of Horses on the stereo babe
There’s room over here if you want to sit next to me
So you left all your worry in Boston
Let’s sit by the fire
Arrive at this moment and be

When you think of tomorrow
Do you think of a life that’s whole
Cause when you’re away
There is nothing left for me to know
