Feel Like a Child

The minutes pass like hours, the hours pass like days
I'm waiting for you to let me show that I can change my ways
The birds are singing but the phone's not ringing, and I feel so very sad
'Cause I love you and that's so true, and it's making me hurt so bad, and I

Feel like a child when you are not around
These days of living wild have driven me to the ground
I'm lost in the confusion and I'd rather not be found, and I
Feel like a child when you are not around

I'm bad with words so I have to be heard writing you this song
It's not new to you, you've heard it before and you knew it all along
You know me better than I know myself, how can you walk away
From the one you love, I've asked the man above to give you the strength to stay. And I

Feel like a child when you are not around
These days of living wild have driven me to the ground
I'm lost in the confusion and I'd rather not be found, and I
Feel like a child when you are not around

One day everything was cool, the next thing you know we both were so blue
But I will be back, I won't let you go
We've been through alot, that's for sure
But for some reason we always ask for more
We're made for each other, that much we both know. And I

Feel like a child when you are not around
These days of living wild have driven me to the ground
I'm lost in the confusion and I'd rather not be found, and I
Feel like a child when you are not around
I feel like a child when you are not around
I feel like a child when you are not around
