Haven't Seen For Awhile

---

As I lie here in bed, your smile fills my head.
And I'm using this pen to talk to you, in a southern way.
It's been weeks since I've seen you last,
the time away from you ain't moving too fast.
Wishing my summer away just to see you again.

I'm there by your side,
looking in your eyes,
seeing you with me,
what else could there be.

If I could get away,
I'd be there today,
you'd be wearing that smile
I haven't seen for a while.

I wake up everyday go through the same routine, go to work,
come home, what does it all really mean?
Check the mail just hoping to find,
another note form you would ease my mind.

It's 5:15...

I can picture you driving home from that same old scene.
In 5 you'll hear the phone ringin',
we'll have to settle for talking again.

I'm there by your side,
looking in your eyes,
seeing you with me,
what else could there be.

If I could get away,
I'd be there today,
you'd be wearing that smile
I haven't seen for a while.

I can picture you now, you're standing outside your house.
The breeze is blowin' off the northern shore,
now I'm loving you more.
I long for the days when there's no goodbyes.
Wish I could see you wipe the tears from your eyes.
Tell you everything is alright,
lay you down, say to you goodnight.

I'm there by your side,
looking in your eyes,
seeing you with me,
what else could there be.

If I could get away,
I'd be there today,
you'd be wearing that smile
I haven't seen for a while.
