I don't recall the icebox ever humming quite so loud
|
That clock upon the wall, sounding like a crowd
|
My that dog is restless
|
He don't ever settle down
|
Now ain't it strange what occupies your mind
|
When your baby ain't around
|
|
When your baby ain't around
|
I swear the moon and stars won't shine
|
And nights get longer all the time
|
I'm so lonesome missing you
|
If you wanna know the truth
|
I never thought I'd ever be this down
|
That's all my body's got a mind to do
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
|
I don't recall this bedroom ever being quite so large
|
Or this big old mattress ever sleeping quite so hard
|
My the days come early
|
When your sleep is less than sound
|
Dreams don't seem to matter much at all
|
When your baby ain't around
|
|
When your baby ain't around
|
I swear the moon and stars won't shine
|
And nights get longer all the time
|
I'm so lonesome missing you
|
If you wanna know the truth
|
I never thought I'd ever be this down
|
That's all my body's got a mind to do
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
|
When your baby ain't around
|
I swear the moon and stars won't shine
|
And nights get longer all the time
|
I'm so lonesome missing you
|
If you wanna know the truth
|
I never thought I'd ever be this down
|
That's all my body's got a mind to do
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
|
Well, that's all my body's got a mind to do
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
My baby baby ain't around
|
Now that my baby ain't around
|
