Lyrics
The time I really need you,
The time I really care,
Is when you are not there, now.
My life is filled with people,
Who keep me on my way.
But only you can make me stay.
I write this for my separated lover to hear
Please keep me near.
Sometimes I get quite lonely
Without you I'm so low.
Your absence seems to glow, now.
There is so much about you
That swims inside my head.
Remembering every word that you said.
I write this for my separated lover to hear
Please keep me near
Please keep me near
I wondered if you're feeling
The longing that I feel
A longing that's so real, now.
My questions all were answered
Today when I got your note,
And vanished when I saw what you wrote.
I read this from my separated lover and hear
Please keep me near
Please keep me near
Please keep me near.
