Come the day when I'm old and weak
I want you right there sitting next to me
Care for each other so carefully
Holding hands that you and me
Don't even want to see
I don't think about who I used to be and
I don't know who I am now
The only thing I know about future me is
Who I want, who I want around
I want you around
I want you around
I want you around
I want you around
On the days when I moan and weep
I need you right there holding on to me
Care for me so gently
Time's become my enemy
I won't think about the things that used to be and
I can't stand what they are now
Only time I feel certainty is
When you are, when you are around
I want you around
I want you around
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
Hold on
This plane is going down
No one will hear a sound
Oh babe
I need you then and now
I hope that you're around
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
Hold on
This plane is going down
No one will hear a sound
Oh babe
I need you then and now
I hope that you're around
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
Get back
My world is burning down
When you are not around
Sweet thing
My head is in the clouds
Come bring me to the ground
