(Lyrics and music by L. Morris, played with the Hal Mooney Orchestra)
Esther Ofarim, 1964
When I'm away from you
I'm just a nothing at all
away from you
my heart has nowhere to call.
Away from you
I feel so helpless and small.
When you're not near me
my friends can't cheer me
Oh, I'm so lonely and blue.
Please come back to me
never let me be
away from you!
I don't sing anymore
I don't dance anymore
I don't laugh like I used to do before.
Like a bird who can't fly
I just sit here and cry
'cause I know you don't love me anymore
When I'm away from you
I'm just a nothing at all
away from you
my heart has nowhere to call
away from you
I feel so helpless and small.
When you're not near me
my friends can't cheer me
Oh, I'm so lonely and blue.
Please come back to me
never let me be
away from you!
Please come back to me
never let me be
away from you.
Please come back to me...
