While You Are Gone

The clock stopped running, darling
 When you went away
 The sun stops shining
 And the clouds turn to gray
 To me I can't see nothing in the daze
 While your are gone
 The birds did bow their heads
 'Cause they all seem to know
 How much I love you, dear
 And wanted you so
 No, there isn't no place I'd want to go
 While you are gone, gone
 I didn't realize how precious love could be
 Now it is plain enough to see
 To think that I could live
 In this big cruel world by myself
 Loving you so much, longing for your touch
 I know I'm just a fool who didn't play her part
 To cause us, darling, to be so far apart
 So how can I repair these broken hearts
 While you are gone
 How can I repair these broken hearts
 While you are gone
