How Can I Keep You - Lyrics

(v1)
What good do plans do?
If I'm left without you
And all of our dreams
Have all washed away

What good is love for?
If I'm left still wanting more
You’re back in yesterday
While I rotate away

(chorus)
I dream of you each night
You’re gone with the sun
It doesn’t seem right
I feel so undone
What can I do?
What can I say?
How can I keep you
From slipping away?

(v2)
You were all too real
You were so meaningful
You filled up my life
And gave me your love

Why did you have to die
I just cant to say goodbye
Were you more than I
Was worthy of?

(chorus)
I dream of you each night
You’re gone with the sun
It doesn’t seem right
I feel so undone
What can I do?
What can I say?
How can I keep you
From slipping away?

(v3)

What good do plans do
If I'm left without you
And all of our dreams
Have all washed away

I’ll never see you again
My lover, my best friend
You’re back in yesterday
While I rotate away
