"If You're Not Here" Lyrics

Gotta catch that plane at 7:30,
Why haven't you come to say goodbye?
Time is running out and I'm still waiting,
I'm so lost without you, I could die.
Yesterday you said you loved me-
Everything seemed to be fine,
Today you're not here, I'm so lonely-
It's the waiting that's driving me out of my mind!

Don't know how I'll sing in that big city,
How can I perform if you're not there?
This will be the worst of all my journeys,
The image of your face will follow me everywhere...

I need your tender kisses,
The feel of your hands, your caress-
Your perfume has me burning,
My heart's yearning to touch you
I miss you so much!

If you're not here, by my side,
Can't hold back the tears,
I try to hide...
Don't think I can take it,
I know I won't make it,
Make it without you...

If you're not here, by my side,
Only your love keeps me alive.
No sense in dreaming,
My life has no meaning,
If you're not here.

I need your tender kisses
The feel of your hands, your caress
Your perfume has me burning
My heart is yearning to touch you
I need you so much

If you're not here, by my side
Can't hold back the tears
I try to hide
Don't think I can take it
I know I won't make it
Make it withou you

If you're not here, by my side
Only your love keeps me alive
No sense in dreaming
My life has no meaning
If you're not here
