When She's Near

My cover is blown.
I'm faded and dreary.
when my love is away,
My cover is blown
when she leaves me alone,
I'm weathered and weary.
The nights are the days
when my love is away.
When she's near,
the new year's here,
and there is not a resolution
that I can't do.
I see things clearly
when she's near me.
When she's near me,
all the world is new.
When life has me vexed,
I stop thinking clearly.
I can get so afraid
that I push her away.
Repentance is next.
I miss her so dearly.
See, those nights are the days
when my love is away.
When she's near,
the new year's here,
and there is not a resolution
that I can't do.
I see things clearly
when she's near me.
When she's near me,
all the world is new.
I'm waiting for the day when I am on her mind. (She's on mine)
I am waiting for the day when love's no longer blind, blind.
When she's near (when she's near) (x3)
When she's near.
When she's near,
the new year's here,
and there is not a resolution
that I can't do.
I see things clearly
when she's near me.
When she's near me,
all the world is new.
When she's near me,
all the world is new. (x2)
