I like your absence von Julian Dawson

Julian Dawson - I like your absence

I like your absence better than your presents
with you it's Christmas every day
I like news better that comes by the letter
I promise if you leave I'll write you every day

'cause absence makes the heart grow fonder
I like you best when you're not there
whenever we're together it's stormy weather
whenever we're apart it seems it's always fair

I like your absence better than your presence
and your apartment is an ideal home
we have sound - we have vision
but most important there's a telephone

'cause absence ...

I like your absence better than your presence
but your devotion doesn't buy my time
and if I'm gonna spend my life in prison
I think it's only fair that I should know my crime

'cause you're my judge and you're my jury
just one sentence I land in jail
but I've got a file right here in this cake
I'm busting out of here and I'm jumping bail
jumping bail
jumping bail

I like your absence better than your presents
with you it's Christmas every day
I like news better that comes by the letter
I promise if you leave I'll write you every day
