Haven't Seen For A While Lyrics

As I lie here in bed, your smile fills my head
And I'm using this pen to talk to you, from 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
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 from you would ease my mind
It's 5:15; I can picture you driving home from your same old scene
In five you'll hear the phone ringing, 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
Haven't seen for a while

I can picture you now, you're standing outside your house
The breeze is blowing off your northern shore
Now I'm loving you more
I long for the days when there are no goodbyes
Wish I could see you, wipe the tears from your eyes
Tell you everything's 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
Haven't seen for a while
