WHERE'VE YOU BEEN
J. Vezner & D. Henry (
Claire had all but given up [
When she and Edwin fell in love [
She touched his face and shook her head [
In disbelief, she sighed and said, [
"In many dreams I've held you near [
Now, at last, you're really here." [
"Where've you been? [
I've looked for you forever and a day [
Where've you been? [
I'm just not myself when you're away." [
He asked her for her hand for life [
And she became a salesman's wife [
He was home each night by eight [
But one stormy evening, he was late [
Her frightened tears fell to the floor [
Until his key turned in the door. [
"Where've you been? [
I've looked for you forever and a day [
Where've you been? [
I'm just not myself when you're away." [
They'd never spent a night apart
For sixty years she heard him snore
Now they're in a hospital [
In separate beds on different floors [
Claire soon lost her memory [
Forgot the names of family [
She never spoke a word again [
Then one day, they wheeled him in [
He held her hand and stroked her hair [
In a fragile voice she said, [
"Where've you been? [
I've looked for you forever and a day [
Where've you been? [
I'm just not myself when you're away. [
No, I'm just not myself when you're away." [
