In the absence of you
I can feel that I'm slipping
Trying to hold on to something tonight
There's no life in this town
Only my shadow gone drinking
Trying to forget myself falling
Straight through you
And I'm so far away
So far away
Trying to hold on to someone somewhere waiting
So far away from you
And every little thing there is about you
Staying with me all the time
I try to get myself together and pull through
But I'm walking blind
Oh so blind
So far away
So far away
Trying to hold on to someone somewhere waiting
There's no me without you
Just a dead way drifting
Down on the river with nothing
Into the ocean blue
Fading away in the absence of you
