As I lay here in bed, your smile fills my head
And Im using this pen to talk to you, from a southern way.
Its been weeks since Ive seen you last
Time away from you aint movin too fast
Wishin my summer away, just to see you again
Chorus
Im there by your side, looking in your eyes
Seeing you with me, what else could there be
If I could get away, I would be there today
Youd be wearing that smile, havent seen for awhile
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
Its 5:15 I can picture you driving home from your same old scene,
In 5 youll hear the phone ringing,
Well have to settle for talking again
(chorus)
I can picture you now,
Youre standing outside your house
The breeze is blowin off the northern shore,
Now Im loving you more
I long for the days when theres no goodbyes
Wish I could see you wipe the tears from your eyes
Tell you everything is allright,
Lay you down, say to you goodnight
And Im using this pen to talk to you, from a southern way.
Its been weeks since Ive seen you last
Time away from you aint movin too fast
Wishin my summer away, just to see you again
Chorus
Im there by your side, looking in your eyes
Seeing you with me, what else could there be
If I could get away, I would be there today
Youd be wearing that smile, havent seen for awhile
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
Its 5:15 I can picture you driving home from your same old scene,
In 5 youll hear the phone ringing,
Well have to settle for talking again
(chorus)
I can picture you now,
Youre standing outside your house
The breeze is blowin off the northern shore,
Now Im loving you more
I long for the days when theres no goodbyes
Wish I could see you wipe the tears from your eyes
Tell you everything is allright,
Lay you down, say to you goodnight
