On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time,
I felt free
And I felt lonely
And I felt scared
And I began to talk to myself almost immediately,
Not being used to being the only person there
Hmm

The first time I made coffee for just myself,
I made too much of it
But I drank it all,
Just 'cause you hate it when I let things go to waste
And I wandered through the house, like a little boy lost at the mall
And an astronaut could've seen the hunger in my eyes from space

And I sang oh
What do I do?
What do I do?
What do I do?
What do I do without you?

On the morning when I woke up without you for the first time,
I was cold, so I put on a sweater
And I turned up the heat
And the walls began to close in
And I felt so sad and frightened,
I practically ran from the living room out into the street

And the wind began to blow and all the trees began to bend
And the world in it's cold way started coming alive
And I stood there like a businessman waiting for a train
And I got ready for the future to arrive

And I sang oh
What do I do?
What do I do?
What do I do?
What do I do without you?
