When You're Away

When You're Away - Carmen McRae

When you're away dear

How weary the lonesome hours

Sunshine seems gray dear

The fragrance has left the flowers

Ever I hear you in seeming

Whispering soft love words to me

Ah if I knew it were but dreaming

Never to be

Then when you're near me

There's nothingt I would to do

Just to endear me

More fondly my love to you

Never again let us part dear

I'd die without you my own

Hold me again to your heart

I love you alone

Never never again let us part dear

I'd die without you my own

Hold me again to your heart

I love you alone
