When I’m Away

[Verse 1]
Living's too short
You are the watch while time is ticking
I forgot how fast we move
Let's be efficient
Before I've got to go
Before I've got to go
And when I get back
We'll make up all the time that we've been missing
If you're in a slump
You better fix that posture, won't be long
Before I've got to go
Before I've got to go

[Pre-Chorus]
You better wait, better wait
Better wait for me
You better wait, better wait
Better wait for me

[Chorus]
When I'm away
You'll be all I ever think about
When I come home
You'll be all I ever talk about
When I'm away
You'll sing this song as you think of me
When I'm away, I'm away
Will you wait for me?

[Verse 2]
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then show
Don't be afraid
I'm more than a shot in the dark
But, baby, I've got to know
Before I've got to go
If you believe, if you believe
If you believe, then show
Don't be short-sighted, blindsided
Before I get up, get up and go
Cause I've got to know
Before I've got to go

[Pre-Chorus]
You better wait, better wait
Better wait for me
You better wait, better wait
Better wait for me

[Chorus]
When I'm away
You'll be all I ever think about
When I come home
You'll be all I ever talk about
When I'm away
You'll sing this song as you think of me
When I'm away, I'm away
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?
Will you wait for me?

[Chorus]
When I'm away
You'll be all I ever think about
When I come home
You'll be all I ever talk about
When I'm away
You'll sing this song as you think of me
When I'm away, I'm away
Will you wait for me?
When I'm away
You'll be all I ever think about
When I come home
You'll be all I ever talk about
When I'm away
You'll sing this song as you think of me
When I'm away, I'm away
Will you wait for me?
