Away From You Louis Jordan

It made me cry
To say good-bye
I'm sad and blue;
Now that you've gone
I can't go on
Away from you

I smile to hide
The tears inside
It's hard to do;
My happiness
My life's success
Depends on you

The hours seem long
The world goes wrong
When we're apart;
My skies are gray
What can I say
To soothe my heart?

It is the end;
I can't pretend
That I'm not blue;
Oh, can't you see
Life's misery
Away from you!
