[Verse 1]
It started in a dream
But it's slowly spilling over
Bursting at the seams
What does it mean?
Ah, someone else was on my mind
And I told you it was you but I was lying (I-I-I was lying)

[Pre-Chorus 1]
And I hate that I'm made this way
Got a lot that I just can't say
I'll bottle it up till my heart of glass starts to break

[Chorus]
I know it's wrong
But when you're gone
The nights are long
I need someone
To hold me when I don't have you
Hold me when I don't have
I know it's wrong
But when you're gone
The nights are long
I need someone
To hold me when I don't have you
It's lonely when I don’t have
You
[Post-Chorus 1]
You, oh, oh
Oh, oh
You
You, oh, oh
Oh, oh

[Verse 2]
I wish I would've called
When I'm low I don't know
I just question the feeling of the fall (Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh)
Someone else was in my head
And it should've been you instead
I'm always hiding, always hiding

[Pre-Chorus 2]
And I hate that I just can't change
But I'm building the perfect stranger
I'll cover it up till there's nothing else left to save us (Save us)

[Chorus]
I know it's wrong
But when you’re gone
The nights are long
I need someone
To hold me when I don't have you
Hold me when I don't have
I know it's wrong
But when you're gone
The nights are long
I need someone
To hold me when I don't have you
It's lonely when I don't have
You
[Post-Chorus 2]
You, oh, oh
Oh, oh
You
When I don't have you
Yeah it’s lonely at night when I don’t have you, yeah (You, oh, oh)
When I don’t have you
Yeah, it’s lonely at night when I don’t have you, yeah (Oh, oh)

[Verse 3]
My room is too quiet
So I fill the silence, oh
When I don't have you
Yeah, it’s lonely at night when I don’t have you, yeah
But when you’re beside me
You’re my Aphrodite, oh
When I don't have you
Yeah, it’s lonely at night when I don’t have you, yeah

[Outro]
You
When I don't have you
You, oh, oh
When I don't have you (Don't have you)
(It's lonely when I don't have)
But when you’re beside me
You’re my Aphrodite, oh (You, you, oh, oh)
(Lonely when I don't have you)
(It's lonely when I don't have)
Oh, oh
