[Chorus]
When you're gone, it feels like
My whole world's gone with you
I thought love would be my cure
But now, it's my disease
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?
(Yeah)

[Verse 1]
Baby, baby, baby
Am I addicted
When I need you here all the time, oh?
And I'm not sure if this is healthy
Is it a sickness?
'Cause I feel like I'm losin' my mind
And I know that there's no medicine
Nothing I can take, no remedy
Baby, please stay

[Chorus]
Oh, when you're gone, it feels like
My whole world's gone with you
I thought love would be my cure
But now, it's my disease (My disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you? (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
Oh, oh, oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
I get a fever
Just the thought of you leaving my side
Oh, and I'm not the same 'til you're back holding me
That's all I need
Oh, yeah

[Chorus]
When you're gone, it feels like (When you're gone, baby)
My whole world's gone with you (Gone with you)
I thought love would be my cure
But now, it's my disease (My disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?

[Bridge]
Oh, here's what I'm going through when you're gone
Some serious symptoms of withdrawal
Tossin' and turnin' in my bed
Wakin' up drenched in a cold sweat
Lyin' here longing for you
What am I supposed to do
When I'm stuck and I can't get enough of your love?
Oh, whoa, baby

[Chorus]
When you're gone, it feels like (When you're gone, baby)
My whole world's gone with you (Gone with you)
I thought love would be my cure
But now, it's my disease (My disease)
I try to act mature
But I'm a baby when you leave
How can I ever get used to being without you?
