You're Not Here

The nights are drawing in again

I need the sunlight in my eyes

It's like my heart's in total isolation

Hibernation blind

I want to wake to you again

Curl yourself into my back again

And kiss my shoulder one more time

Feel the heat that's burning

Slowly turning us to sleep again

So many dreams to find

And I don't know

And I don't care

The sun can shine

Or disappear

The mountain falls

The seas can rise

For me

I know what's lost

I know what's found

It won't be long

You're homeward bound

You're gone from me

And I don't know how long

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

Chill your beans

It's not been twenty four

You got to stand up on your own

I got things to do

I got my life and you got your life too

Doesn't mean that I don't love you

I don't know

And I don't care

The sun can shine

Or disappear

The mountain falls

The seas can rise

For me

I know what's lost

I know what's found

It won't be long

You're homeward bound

You're gone from me

And I don't know how long

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

I've been waiting all this time

For you to come on home

And put a smile back on your face

And keep us moving on

Another moment,

Another time, another place

Another memory to keep us warm

I don't know

And I don't care

The sun can shine

Or disappear

The mountain falls

The seas can rise

For me

I know what's lost

I know what's found

It won't be long

You're homeward bound

You're gone from me

And I don't know how long

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here

I only know you're not here
