Whenever I'm away from you, baby
There's nothin' much I want to do, oh baby
If you could only see
What I've been goin' through (goin' through)
Without you (without you)

Each day I smile so well, but they can't see
The real me that's inside hurtin'
I read my books to occupy myself
The therapy, its just not workin'
And its only my imagination
Somethin' in mind
'Cause the only indication
Is I'm wastin' my time

I've lived in fairy tales and nursery rhymes
An uphill climb without an ending
Although my life with you had ups and downs
Smiles and frowns, just pretending
And its only my imagination
Somethin' in mind
'Cause the only indication
Is I'm wastin' my time

Whenever I'm away from you, baby
There's nothin' much I want to do, oh baby
I'm just livin' for the day I make you mine (make you mine)
One more time
