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 am so lost without you, I could die
Yesterday you said you loved me
Everything seemed to be fine
Today you're not here, I am 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 are 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 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 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 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
