Not With You

I went out but I was not with you
you weren't there and that was all I knew
Your golden hair clung to my knee
my too swift hand set you free.

I get high when I am not with you
I'm so high I don't know what to do
I'm a rocket ride, I'm a smokin' gun
I'm freezin' cold in the noonday sun.

Last night
I had a terrible dream
I traveled ten thousand miles just to find something new
and when I reached my destination
who I found there
was you.

By and by I won't be not with you
we'll meet again, rejoice, begin anew
I need you and no one else
I need you more than myself.

All I am is
not with you.
