Only When You're Gone Lyrics

(Chorus)Only when you're goneI'm gonna need a hammer and nailsTo construct this bitter lovesongThis crude testament in songThat rings out only when you're gone(Chorus)Rude are the tongues of loveThat speak of mercy for us allAnd leave us only with a songAnd leave us only with a songNow there's a cold and hollow whisperWhisperThat consumes my body when you're gone(Chorus)And it's only when you're goneAnd awayYour ghost moves through me in that special wayAnd it's a nice hotelMy hotelCome fill the darkness of this prison cellI'll love you longAnd I'll love youWellSo bury me in the kitchenBury me at the storeBury me everywhere you goIn the shadows of the hallwayAh for we do no longer knowWhat we can no longer holdOn days like these our heads fill up with smokeAnd our memories grow old(Cohrus)
