When We're Apart

A sonnet about a far off relationship

When we're apart

There's no love, there's no peace

There's no tenderness

I've heard that rumor before

And no one's denying the truth

Just can't imagine what it'll be like

When we say forever and always

But the words to me slip away

No more paradise, it's not that far away

I'll miss you more than you think I will

I've got nowhere to go

There's no heartbreak, there's no pain

Baby, no one can hurt me

If it all comes down to one, it's gonna work tonight

Till there's nothing left to say

But no one's gonna put me down

Nobody's gonna say no, no no, no

Nobody's gonna say that baby
