THE CORRS LYRICS - When He's Not Around

"When He's Not Around"



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

When he's not in town



[solos]



Can I keep him in my galaxy

(Can I keep him in my galaxy)

Can he live within my fantasy

(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, (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-ie...
