absence

Singer:joy formidable, the

do i miss

what i can't get right

it brings me down

down for a long time

then you leave in a sunny way

and i'm at the window

willing you to wave

you think you're caught

and i know it's sad

but the absence is all we had

do i miss

the sentimental purrs

that keep me dreaming

about the world

day and night

my soul they only graze

what are we feeling

we can't shake

you think you're caught

and i know it's sad

but the absence is all we had

now i know what this means

i know what you mean to me
