While you were gone lyrics

Later, later, later

I’ll start missing that boy

when the moment is right

I’m seeing the house through a new pair of eyes

even though he’s gone everything I see’s a prize

Lazy, lazy, lazy

day after day after day into nights

as mountains of dishes keep growing in size

without his knowing looks to cloud my clear blue skies

Oh.. I’m jumping for joy

I do love that boy

but he seems to disappear

when he’s not here

And I long for nothing at all

at my own beck and call

how brightly I shone

while you were gone

No sooner, sooner, sooner

has the echo of the closing door died down

before I start to feel completely at ease

it’s not hard to think straight when there’s no-one to please

Choosing, choosing, choosing

what day after day after day has in store

I’m drifting along on a warm gentle breeze

life is a lock and I’ve just found my keys

Oh.. I’m jumping for joy

I do love that boy

but he seems to disappear

when he’s not here

And I long for nothing at all

at my own beck and call

oh how brightly I shone

while you were gone
