Sarah Brightman - Away from you lyrics

rate me

Away from you

There is no music,

There is no sunlight,

The world is gray.

Away from you

The clocks are frozen,

And time's a traveller

Who's lost his way.

The people I meet

Might as well be statues,

The words we exchange

Might as well be Greek.

The room that I'm in

May be bright and cheerful

But to me

It's dim and bleak.

I'm half alive

Until the moment

The door swings open

And you walk through.

Now my world starts to glow

Like a stained-glass window

And what was old and cold

Is warm and new.

And so you see

Why I can never be

Away from you.

Away from you

The world is lifeless

As though creation

Has gone awry.

The trees are bare,

There are no flowers,

The fields are thirsty,

The streams are dry.

We live, you and I,

For a breath of sunlight,

So brief an escape

From a world of gray.

Our moments of warmth

Have been touch and go, love,

But tonight, we'll touch

And stay.

The people I meet

Might as well be statues,

The words we exchange

Might as well be Greek.

The room that I'm in

May be bright and cheerful

But to me

It's dim and bleak.

I'm half alive

Until the moment

The door swings open

And you walk through.

Now my soul is afloat

On a wave of music

That I could feel such joy

I never knew.

And so you see

Why I can never be

Away from you.
