I'm so Happy When You're Near - The Shaggs

I’m so happy when you’re near

I’m so sad when you’re away

I’ve been happy almost every day

Now that you’re here to stay

But when you have to leave

Then I’ll start to grieve

Every week you have to go

Every time it’s a different road

I never know what to do

I’m so lonesome without you

When you’re far away

You are always in my dreams

And when you’re home to stay

We make a perfect team

It’s so hard to have to wait for you

To ride into the gate

But when you get there

We have many news and feelings to share

I know it has to be

I know it can’t be changed

But sometimes I think we are

Completely insane

If we could see each other more

It wouldn’t be so bad

If we could only find the open door

We wouldn’t be so sad

So until we find the right door

You’ll have to leave again

And once more both our lives will be

Very dim
