Lyrics
Sweet Karen
Words by Steve M. Mann 7/14/06
Your absence makes me a captain without a ship
A boat floating adrift
Since you?ve gone I?m a gambler with no money
A clown that isn?t funny
Without you I?m a partner that is all alone
A jeweler without a stone
Now that you?ve left me, I suffer from a syndrome
A house that?s not a home
[Chorus]
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen ? Without you I?m not the same
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen - I know it?s me who?s to blame
Little more than an astronaut without a rocket
A Kiss with no chocolate
I?m as useful as a guitar without its strings
A Robin that cannot sing
It?s me without you, a chart without graphs
A comedy with no laughs
Without you I?m a face without a smile
Emotions lost in exile
[Chorus]
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen ? Without you I?m not the same
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen - I know it?s me who?s to blame
[Bridge]
[Solo]
Years gone by, like a pilot without his navigator
A fancy dish without the flavor
Some deep sea diver without his lifeline
A city with no skyline
[Chorus]
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen ? Without you I?m not the same
Seems like forever you?ve been gone
Come back, sweet Karen - I know it?s me who?s to blame
