Madrugada - Only When You're Gone, Nightly Disease (2001)

Lyrics:

Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
And away
Only when you're gone

I'm gonna need a hammer and nails
To construct this bitter lovesong
This crude testament in song
That rings out only when you're gone

Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
And away
Only when you're gone
Oh

Rude are the tongues of love
That speak of mercy for us all
And leave us only with a song
And leave us only with a song
Now it's a cold and hollow whisper
Whisper
That consumes my body when you're gone

Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
And away
Only when you're gone
Oh

And it's only when you're gone
And away
Your ghost moves through me in that special way
And it's a nice hotel
My hotel
Come fill the darkness of this prison cell
I'll love you long
And I'll love you
Well

So bury me in the kitchen
Bury me at the store
Oh, bury me everywhere you go
In the shadows of the hallway
Oh, for we do no longer know
What we can no longer hold
On days like these our heads fill up with smoke
And our memories grow old
Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
And away
Only when you're gone

Only when you're gone
Only, only when you're gone
Only when you're gone
And away
Only when you're gone

and gone away

and gone away
