Loudon Wainwright III - Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder Lyrics


Loudon Wainwright III Lyrics

Absence Makes The Heart Grow Fonder Lyrics
Abscence makes the heart grow fonder,
And the mind begins to wander back, to happy days.
I guess you could say you were taken for granted,
I went on and on and I raved and I ranted.
Oh, my tyrannical ways.

But now things are different,
'Cause now you are gone.
And I'm not so sure I can carry on.
I always knew you were important to me,
But now I now you're a necessity.
Otherwise, I start to go insane.

Things weren't easy when we were together,
We had plenty of days of lousy weather,
But now, I'm in a hurricane.
And I'm gonna grieve,
And I'm gonna moan,
'Cause you're not here and I'm alone.

The joke's on me, you get the last laugh.
I found the hard way who is my better half,
And now, I'm the worst for the wear.
When I see you again expect some champagne wine,
And on Valentine's day expect a Valentine.
'Cause now I know how much I care.
How much I care.
