I see your face, your body sitting next to mine.
I wanna take you in my arms, feel you by my side.
I imagine you're really here with me,
like you've always been before,
before you left that winters day,
and behind you closed that door.

I didn't give into lust,
I didn't cheat on you.
I just lost track of things that I really needed to do.
Hugging you, touching you,
buying you a rose.
If only I would've woken up before that book was closed.

Tell me, how is your life treating you without me by your side,
do you ever think of me, have you ever stopped and cried.
Do you, have any unspoken words, that you-wanted to hide,
tell me how's your life treating you,
... without me, without me by your side.

It's the little things I miss, your tender touch,
and a good night kiss
Your smile when you greet me,
your laughter in the evening.
The time we spent in Spain, our trip to Italy on the train.
Tell me don't you even ever stop and miss- at least- one single thing.
Now as I sit and think of where you are tonight,
I can hardly remember one of our countless fights.
How can something so beautiful get so out of hand,
What would've been if I would've put that ring on your finger.

Tell me, how is your life treating you without me by your side,
Do you ever think of me, have you ever stopped and cried.
Do you, have any unspoken words, that you've wanted to hide,
Tell me how's your life treating you,
...without me, without me by your side, by your side, without me by your side.

I can't remember the last time I woke up next to you.
And it makes me so sad. Oh, and it makes me so sad (today and yesterday)
The minutes pass like hours and hours pass like minutes and here I stand (here I stand) a lonely man, a lonely man....
Here I stand a lonely man!
