Luke Wade - While I Was Away Lyrics

Thought I was working for us
Turns out I was working just for me
Gave me your home, your time, your trust
Thought I would be your family

Singing my songs out on the road
Left you on our island all alone
Moving fast and burning bright
Distant as the stars in your sky
Maybe if I shined a little on ya'

But we're way past that now
And my actions they speak loudly
And the rain it falls softly
That washes us away
But we're way past that now
With passion swinging wildly
I guess there's something here inside me
Wants to throw it all away
I guess it's time to leave again

You're the shore and I'm the sea
Drift away, make you wait for me
Feels like I'm everywhere at once
Means I'm really nowhere at all
Thought my voice sounded just fine
Until I heard yours mixed with mine
Maybe if we'd just had a song together

But we're way past that now
And my actions they speak loudly
And the rain it falls softly that washes us away
We're way past that now
With passion swinging wildly
Guest there's something here inside me
Wants to throw it all away
It's been this way since we began

Tried to break me of this spell that I was under
Then in turn I starved you with my hunger
Maybe if I'd just tried a little harder
You could've stayed

But we're way past that now
And my actions they speak loudly
And the rain it falls softly
That washes us away
We're way past that now
And my absence it speaks loudly
Guess you made a life without me
While I was a way
And I hope you find a home in him
