I Like It When We're Together - Joan Armatrading

The hours go slowly when you close the door

And you leave me here by myself

How do I fill my days when I feel so sad

That your warmth has gone away

I bite my lip to stop the tears

But the tears come anyway

I like it when we’re together

I don’t care if I’m selfish

I want you to stay

Everything, every single thing

Everything I do

I do because I love you

I’m not built to be alone you know

I get anxious when I’m on my own

No need to be opposite sides of doors

No need to talk through walls

I hate that hollow stomach feel

When you turn and walk away

I like it when we’re together

I don’t care if I’m selfish

I want you to stay

Everything, every single thing

Everything I do

I do because I love you

I like it when we’re together

I don’t care if I’m selfish

I want you to stay

Everything, every single thing

Everything I do

I do because I love you

I know I make you feel the guilt

And my reasons are emotional

But we can deal with all demons

In their various appearance

Let’s remind ourselves how far we’ve come

Let us look at how we really feel

If we tear from each other

Would we ever fall in love again

Ever fall in love again

I like it when we’re together

I like it when we’re together

I like it when we’re together

I don’t care if I’m selfish

I want you to stay

Everything, every single thing

Everything I do

I do because I love you

I like it when we’re together

I don’t care if I’m selfish

I want you to stay

Everything, every single thing

Everything I do

I do because I love you

I like it when we’re together

I like it when we’re together

I like it when we’re together

I like it when we’re together
