Sulk over!

I used to travel a lot with work and was often away from home for weeks at a time so it might have been nice if this song had been written for me. It was written by Swill Odgers if The Men They Couldn't Hang:


Parted From You

An endless road of breathtaking sights
Another town, another night
Where telephone bills replace bottles of pills
Love hurts and your voice thrills

Now all this frustration brings a feeling of pain
When I put down the phone I want to call you again
When I write you a letter, when I send you a card
I'm soft, my body grows hard

Mountains and rivers and beautiful views
Mean nothing to me, parted from you
Sunshine or snow it all becomes grey
As I think of you while I'm away

Days become weeks, or so it seems
But night's a release, with you in my dreams
But I wake, you're away and I think of how far
I feel like I'm trapped in a jar

And mountains and rivers and beautiful views
Mean nothing to me, parted from you
Sunshine or snow it all becomes grey
As I think of you while I'm away
