Erasure - What Will I Say When You're Gone? Lyrics

I'll go check in the morning
A kind of silent falling
Watch the sunrise all alone

And I wanna be with you
And feel your gentle breathing
It can't be easy on your own

And it matters to be here
Got something I believe in
I'm not sure what I should do

Now it's six in the morning
And all our lives are calling
It's precious; it won't wait for you

What'll I do, what will I say when you're gone?
In this emptiness emotion
Will it hurt when you walk out the door?
Fall asleep like drowning in the ocean

I don't wanna go crazy
And still the world keeps turning
Turn around and walk away
And the hours are fading
There is no more persuading
No more words will make you stay

What'll I do, what will I say when you're gone?
In this emptiness emotion
Will it hurt when you walk out the door?
Fall asleep like drowning in the ocean

I don't wanna go crazy
And still the world keeps turning
Turn around and walk away
And the hours are fading
There is no more persuading
No more words will make you stay

Where will you go
When time goes by so slowly?
And how will I know
If you'll be here when I need you?
