Where've You Been |
Claire had all but given up |
When she and Edwin fell in love |
She touched his face and shook her head |
In disbelief she sighed and said |
«In many dreams I’ve held you near |
Now at last you’re really here» |
Where’ve you been |
I’ve looked for you forever and a day |
Where’ve you been |
I’m just not myself when you’re away |
He asked her for her hand for life |
Then she became a salesman’s wife |
He was home each night by eight |
But one stormy evening he was late |
Her frightened tears fell to the floor |
Until his key turned in the door |
Where’ve you been |
I’ve looked for you forever and a day |
Where’ve you been |
I’m just not myself when you’re away |
They’d never spent a night apart |
For sixty years she heard him snore |
Now they’re in a hospital |
In separate beds on different floors |
Claire soon lost her memory, forgot the names of family |
She never spoke a word again, and then one day they wheeled him in |
He held her hand and stroked her hair |
And in a fragile voice she said |
Where’ve you been |
I’ve looked for you forever and a day |
Where’ve you been |
I’m just not myself when you’re away |
No I’m just not myself when you’re away |
