When I'm with you my heart sings of a joy
and everything washes over me and cleans me 'til I'm shinin'
For your touch there are no words
I fly with high hopes in the birds
and I know there's nothing better 'cause I'm smilin'
Everyone I've ever loved has left me lonely
Every time I let it go I'm high and dry
Every time I think I'm one and only
I find myself alone not knowing why
All the mystery and the magic
You light up what once was tragic
And I know that I will miss you when you're gone
I could never have imagined
All the heavens pour with passion
But I know that I will miss you when you're gone
You tell me that you are different
I'll be saved and I'll be lifted
It's not easy but I'm trying to believe you
All the angels lost their halos
I have no choice but to let go
There are times when I feel paper thin and see-through
Everyone I've ever loved has left me lonely
Every time I let it go I'm high and dry
Every time I think I'm one and only
I find myself alone not knowing why
All the mystery and the magic
You light up what once was tragic
And I know that I will miss you when you're gone
I could never have imagined
All the heavens pour with passion
But I know that I will miss you when you're gone
When you're gone (x2)
You're gone
Everyone I've ever loved has left me lonely
Every time I let it go I'm high and dry
All the mystery and the magic
You light up what once was tragic
And I know that I will miss you when you're gone
I could never have imagined
All the heavens pour with passion
But I know that I will miss you when you're gone
When you're gone (x2)
You're gone
When I'm with you my heart sings of a joy
And everything...
And I know that I will miss you when you're gone
