Absence Makes the Heart Grow Fonder
When I close my weary eyes
To go to sleep
Everything
Seems wrong
I toss and then I turn
I think of you
The night time seems
So long
Then I drift into a young world
We shared so long ago
The quarrels, the silly phase
That made us cry
Why girl?
We'll never know
And I can't stand the strain
And I can't take the pain
I can't talk in the rain any longer
You're out of my sight
But you're still in my mind
Absence makes the heart
Grow fonder
I hug my pillow in the night
I think of you
The tears begin
To fall
I make believe you're in my arms
I drift away
Then suddenly
You call
You call me from my dreamworld
The way that it used to be
I picture your loving arms
Are holding me
I wake up
But it's just a dream
And I can't stand the pain
And I can't take the strain
I can't walk in the rain
Any longer
You're out of my sight
But you're still in my mind
Absence makes the heart
Grow fonder
