(v1) Male
I'm sitting here watchin' you sitting there starin'
At the bottom of your coffee cup
Flashing through my mind what did I do this time
Will "sorry" be enough

'Cause I can't stand waiting for your accusations
So I ask "how was the PTA?"
When I quit tryin', I noticed you cryin'
Well, how long has it been this way?

(Chorus)
I can't wrap my arms around you
In the dark of the night
I can't whisper sweet words in your ear
'Cause Darlin', you're not here

(v2) Female
I know that you're wanting to ask me a question
The pain's clearly etched on your face
Looking so lonely, I wish I could only
Turn back the clock and erase

The time you quit smiling and the spark left your eyes
The times you left me alone
I want to touch you but I hurt too much to
You're not here and everything's gone

(Chorus)
I can't wrap my arms around you
In the dark of the night
I can't whisper sweet words in your ear
'Cause Darlin', you're not here

(Bridge)
I can reach out and touch you
But can I really touch you
Your body's here but the feeling is gone

(Chorus)
I can't wrap my arms around you
In the dark of the night
I can't whisper sweet words in your ear
'Cause Darlin', you're not here
