Only 'Cause I Dont Have You

Turn off the music Take down the signs Pack up the boxes Put away the wine No toast for the future No reward for the find If looks could kill This mirror would do Only 'cause I don't have you Later on good wishes Later on good try I'm afraid won't do It's not justified You go from the privy And you end up deprived On top of the world But still there's no view Only 'cause I don't have you Not built on a wisp or whim Twist an arm, break a leg Tear me limb from limb If there's a point you've made it If there's a fare I've paid it Don't bother with ovations Leave off the fanfare Let the candles melt down Till the smoke's all that's there Leave the veil in place A tear, la mer I could say it was nothing Now that there's nothing new Only 'cause I don't have you
