when he's not around

[ti:when he's not around] [ar:the corrs] [al:] [offset:500] I can't breathe, I can't sleep He's uncool an unsophisticat He's a tightrope walker on an open path He's a maze of curiosity He is the living bread that cures my appetite I find that I can't breathe and I can't sleep When he's not around Everyday is bluey grey When he's not in town His mystique is one of innocence I feel I'm lounging in lovely in his big blue eyes And I would be preening in paradise If I were always beside him like a Siamese I find that I can't breathe and I can't sleep When he's not around Everyday is bluey grey When he's not in town Can I keep him in my galaxy Can he live within my fantasy I find that I can't breathe and I can't sleep When he's not around Everyday is bluey grey When he's not in town I find that I can't breathe and I can't sleep When he's not around Everyday is bluey grey When he's not in town When he's not in town, Yeah
