One more badly printed boarding pass
For a window or an aisle
One more airline magazine about the duty free
One more way to kill another mile

It takes forever going anywhere
It takes it out of me sometimes
Takes the daily drudge of boats 'n' planes 'n' cars 'n' trains
Just to try to take you off my mind

[Chorus]
Time without you is a waste of time
Poetry that’s lost its rhyme
Music with a melody
No one wants to hear
Nights without you hurt the most
Haunted by a hollow ghost
Lingering around me most
Whenever I’m away from you
Whenever I’m away from you

One more 'get in' through an alleyway
One more interview to do
One more number on the door that is my home tonight
One more box of soap and bottle of shampoo
[Chorus]
Time without you is a waste of time
Poetry that’s lost its rhyme
Music with a melody
No one wants to hear
Nights without you hurt the most
Haunted by a hollow ghost
Lingering around me most
Whenever I’m away from you
Whenever I’m away from you

And I keep thinking, every day away is one day closer home
And every night apart is one night less alone
One more less to go

[Chorus]
Time without you is a waste of time
Poetry that’s lost its rhyme
Music with a melody
No one wants to hear
Nights without you hurt the most
Haunted by a hollow ghost
Lingering around me most
Whenever I’m away from you
Whenever I’m away from you
[Chorus]
Time without you is a waste of time
Poetry that’s lost its rhyme
Music with a melody
No one wants to hear
Nights without you hurt the most
Haunted by a hollow ghost
Lingering around me most
Whenever I’m away from you
Whenever I’m away from you

[Chorus]
Time without you is a waste of time
Poetry that’s lost its rhyme
Music with a melody
No one wants to hear
Nights without you hurt the most
Haunted by a hollow ghost
Lingering around me most
Whenever I’m away from you
Whenever I’m away from you
