I’m So Happy When You’re Near Lyrics by The Shaggs

Philosophy of the World

1969

[Intro]
I'm so happy when you're near
I'm so sad when you're away
I've been happy almost every day
Now that you're here to stay
[Verse 1]
But when you have to leave
Then I'll start to grieve
[Verse 2]
Every week you have to go
Every time it's a different road
I never know what to do
I'm so lonesome without you
[Verse 3]
When you're far away
You are always in my dreams
And when you're home to stay
We make a perfect team
[Bridge]
It's so hard to have to wait for you
To ride into the gate
But when you get there
We have many news and feelings to share
I know it has to be
I know it can't be changed
But sometimes I think we are
Completely insane
If we could see each other more
It wouldn't be so bad
If we could only find the open door
We wouldn't be so sad
[Outro]
So until we find the right door
You'll have to leave again
And once more both our lives will be
Very dim
