When You're Gone

(album: Layers - 2016)

I remember how it feels
Lying in your tattooed arms
Everything was so surreal
Until it all went wrong, it all went wrong

Other boys come and other boys go
Caught up in your undertow
They try to hold me close
But I'm clinging to your ghost

Well the clock keeps ticking on
Your memory starts to fade
But then I hear your song
And you're back to me like a melody

Other boys come and other boys go
Living in your shadow
They try to pull me in
But I'm drifting off again

I'm looking for a lost boy caught up in the haze
Searching night and day for you
Cause I lost boy while you slip away
Can't you see I'm sleeping too?
When you're gone, gone
When you're gone, gone
I can't, I can't hold on
When you're gone

I keep searching, I keep searching, I keep searching for you
I keep searching, always searching, I keep searching for you

I'm looking for a lost boy caught up in the haze
Searching night and day for you
Cause I lost boy while you slip away
Can't you see I'm sleeping too?
When you're gone, gone
When you're gone, gone
I can't, I can't hold on
When you're gone
