When You're Not Around

[Verse] Sittin' on this front porch, beneath the cotton candy sky Guitar in my hand, strummin' as the day goes by Missing you like a river, flowin' deep and wide But your love's a lighthouse, guidin' me through the night [Verse 2] Picking up these old memories, like wildflowers on a field Every moment we had, forever etched and sealed The melody we made, echoes in my soul But it's the silence without you, that takes its toll [Chorus] When you're not around, it's like a symphony without a sound An empty stage, with no one there to take a bow Every step feels heavy, like I'm walkin' through quicksand Darlin', I'm just a broken record, playin' your love in every sound [Bridge] Through the storms we weathered, and the songs we sang, Your voice still lingers, like an everlasting pang. But I'll hold onto our memories, like treasures in the night, In the melody of our love, everything feels right. [Chorus] When you're not around, it's like a world without a song A love unplayed, a dance that's yet to be drawn But I'll keep on singing, through the highs and the lows Darlin', I'll be your faithful record, playin' your love in every sound [Outro] So I'll sit on this front porch, 'neath the cotton candy sky, keep singing our love, till you're by my side
