I have a life with you
(He has a life)
My dearest wife are you
(His dearest wife)
So many years with you
(So many years)
So very blissful, too
(Just a few tears)
But there's just one thing wrong
That wrecks this lovely song
Cuz you weren't there!
I keep it light with you
(He keeps it light)
Keep my shit tight with you
(Shit's locked down tight)
I know this can't be true
(Knows it's not true)
But what else can I do?
(What can he do?)
The World feels upside down
When you're not around.
So I play this game.
But it's just not the same,
Cuz you're not there
And all this time I've spent my days building castles in the air
And dreaming of a world the two of us could share
