When You're Gone

When you're gone, when you're gone
I think about you, about you
I dream about you, about you
When you're gone, when you're gone
I sit around and wait for you, for you
Waiting for a call, I stay up late for you

I can't sleep without you, can't eat without you
Every time you're gone I just dream about you
I just sit in my car and I scream about you
Like what would my life even mean without you?
I get caught up in my feelings and I drink about you
But I'm tired of drinking, tired of over thinking
I know I get frustrating and I can be mean and
I just hope that you know that you're my only queen and
You're the only thing that gives my life any meaning
You're the only person that I wanna be with
I'll be damned if anything ever gets between us
I know we have problems and shit can get tough
But you're all that I need, you'll always be enough
Before I met you I swore I'd never love
Then you came in my life and you called my bluff
Called my bluff
And I know you gotta life, sometimes you gotta go
But I miss you every night, I mean that shit in my soul
Want you to be my wife, hang with me till we're old
Yeah you're my only light but when you're gone I'm cold
I know that we fight and we lose control
We both wanna be right, neither one of us folds
But baby that's alright, we don't fit no mold
I think that we might be unbreakable
You know that you're my girl
You know that you're my world
I love how it sounds when you talk about us, plural
Fuck singular, there's not a single word
To even describe how I feel about ya
When you walk in the room it's like you set off all the fucking sprinklers

When you're gone, when you're gone
I think about you, about you
I dream about you, about you
When you're gone, when you're gone
I sit around and wait for you, for you
Waiting for a call, I stay up late for you

When you're gone I try to be patient
I know that I've been complacent
But If I was ever to lose you I know that I would never find a replacement
Fuck the problems we created
I am so glad that we're dating
If anyone says that I'm not right for you then I swear to God that I'll negate it
We don't have time to debate it
So I'm just gonna be blatant
Being with you is so great and
When you're gone I fucking hate it
But I'm back home and when you come back I swear to God I'll be here waiting
I'm waiting

I actually wrote this back when we were still together
When you were gone one weekend
I never thought that things would change so much
Or that we would grow so close just to become strangers again
It's fucked up
