Always looking through Frosted windows at you Silhouettes of falling stars That shattered windshields Of passing cars So why's it so hard to believe That people live like they do in magazines? They're out there somewhere On starless nights Have a little faith They're right there on the page They're calling your name
What can I say When you're away? What can I do When I need you? What can I say When you're away? What can I do When I need you?
It's not safe here anymore In this convenience store where I was born The air was cold and pure The candy shined Fluorescent candlelight burned through the night And if the rain comes and washed it all to sea Leaving only my magazines and me The world dissolves We stay the same Static on a page And even if it fades It's still calling your name
What can I say When you're away? What can I do When I need you? What can I say When you're away? What can I do When I need you? What can I say? (Ooh) When you're away? What can I do When I need you? What can I say? When you're away? What can I do When I need you?
