When You Leave

When you leave
The space seems huge and this town seems dumb
When you leave
When you leave (when you leave)
I pace this floor back and forth, round and round
When you leave
I can see you lying on the beach in your blue bikini
I can see you drinking wine in France, dancing at the disco
Look at me I’m in this little cage and I’m not even trying
To escape
When you leave
When you’re gone (when you’re gone)
Sophistication goes out the door
Pizza boxes and beer cans on the floor
And when you’re here it’s like the angels sing
I’m helpless like a fetus in the air with no wings
When you’re gone
