Lyrics[]
[Verse 1]
You say there'll be time for us
But your promises turn to dust
When the work is done (Work is done)
I’ll be your number one
But time, time, time, time
Time waits for no one
[Pre-Chorus]
And in all honesty
This distance is killing me, is killing me
[Chorus]
Do I need you more than you need me?
(Tell me, baby)
You make absent love look so easy
(Am I crazy?)
The push and the pull, the up and the down
Waking up next to nobody
You make absent love look so easy
Absent love
[Verse 2]
You say that next week isn’t that far
And I say that I accept who you are
But every time you leave
You lose a piece of me
'Cause time, time, time, time,
Time waits for nobody
[Pre-Chorus]
The lack of stability
Gets old and it triggers me, it triggers me
[Chorus]
Do I need you more than you need me?
(Tell me, baby)
You make absent love look so easy
(Am I crazy?)
The push and the pull, the up and the down
Waking up next to nobody
You make absent love look so easy
Absent love
Absent love
[Bridge]
You know I haven’t changed the way I feel
But you know I can’t pretend it’s no big deal
(Absent love)
[Chorus]
Do I need you more than you need me?
(Tell me, baby) (Absent love)
You make absent love look so easy
(Am I crazy?)
The push and the pull, the up and the down
Waking up to nobody (Nobody)
You make absent love look so easy
Absent love
Do I need you more than you need me?
(Tell me, baby) (Absent love)
You make absent love look so easy
(Am I crazy?) (Absent love)
The push and the pull, the up and the down
Waking up next to nobody
You make absent love look so easy
Absent love
