I'm Lost

I'm lost, I'm like a king without a throne

I'm lost, I'm like a dog without a bone

I'm walkin' round in circles doing things I shouldn't do

That's how much I'm lost without you

I'm lost, I'm like a heart without its beat

I'm lost, just like an army in defeat

I'm like the autumn trees that shed their leaves when summer's through

That's how much I'm lost without you

Every thing about me seems so strange dear

My friends tell me I don't appear the same

I go around acting silly, silly, dear

I can't even remember my name

I'm lost, because the telephone won't ring

I'm lost, my pet canary bird won't sing

I'm lost because each souvenir you left has faded blue

That's how much I'm lost without you
