Without your love
Toto' Lyrics

It's late at night, nothin's feelin' right
The night is bleak and lays bare the emptiness of my soul without you beside me.

Since you've gone away
Your absence has created a void in my life that I cannot fill.

I think I know why you left this time,
I am aware of the reason for your departure, this time around.

But it's still hard to say
Despite knowing the reason for your leaving, it remains difficult to express.

I nearly lost it, when he came around you
My emotions almost got the better of me when I saw him close to you.

Now I'm holdin' it all inside and it's killin' me
I am stifling my feelings, and it is taking a toll on me, both physically and emotionally.

We used to meet at an old cafe in Chi-Town
We had a regular spot in Chicago, where we would catch up on things.

At first you could hear the wind stop,
Our connection was so intense and electrifying that even the wind seemed to pause for a moment.

Then my heart would pound
My heart would race with excitement whenever I thought of you.

I remember everything you used to do, girl
I still recall all the little things you did that endeared you to me.

Now I'm learning something that you already knew
I am gaining insight into something you already understood about love and relationships.

It's not the same without your love
Life has lost its vibrancy and warmth since you left my side.

Every night and every day, girl
This feeling of emptiness pervades my life, both day and night.

You don't have to be afraid
You do not need to fear me or the love that we shared.

I see you through the door, with your motor runnin'
I catch a glimpse of you, starting your car's engine as you leave.

I can still hear the sound
The sounds of your departure still echo in my mind.

I knew then, when you asked him in, you let your guard down
I understood that you were vulnerable and had let your defenses down when you invited him into your life.

You're talking soft, don't tell me,
Despite your soft and gentle manner of speaking, I know what your words portend.

I know you're sincere
I understand that you are being honest with me.

I just called to tell you I'm the only one here
I wanted to let you know that I am still here, waiting for you to return.
