As I glance across the table

Your empty chair is out of place

Living here just ain't that easy now

But there are signs of trying on my face



We need you

You're the strength

You're the sunshine of our days

We need you

And the wisdom of your ways

In our dreams, you are here

When we wake you disappear

Without you

Life is one long lonely day



Both the kids, they still love you

You know, they always ask me

When is daddy coming home

Then we talk, and laugh about the good times

Without you, they still feel so alone



We need you

You're the strength

You're the sunshine of our day

We need you

And the wisdom of your way

In our dreams

You are here

When we wake you disappear

Without you, life is one long lonely day



Someone's knocking at the door of my heart

Telling me what we need

Is a brand new start

That ain't true

We need you



In our dreams

You are here

When we wake you disappear

Without you life is one long lonely day



We need you

We need you

In our dreams you are here

When we wake you disappear

Without you life is one long lonely day

We need you

We need you



In our dreams

You are here

When we wake you disappear

Without you life is one long lonely day
