Though I am not with you every day,
And my mind is bruised from careful thoughts,
I mention you at least once in some little way
And it often brings, a smile back to my face.
Between this morning and tonight,
There has been excitement, a full day.
Been kept busy for so long now,
That I've escaped from my own mind.
But now I lie here in bed all alone by myself
This is where you are and this is where I am.
I close my eyes and try to escape the horrible truth,
That this is just the stand-up comedian before the event.
When the band is tired, but they're still forced to play
When violin's and guitars have lost all strings except D,
And the drummer drums a hollow beat on broken drums
As the singer's throat grows sore and his voice coarse.
How I cannot explain but I felt myself slipping,
When all I wished was to close my eyes and fall.
Life is so concrete, so hard to hit and made to last,
-So much time for you and me was given, so much spent.
And before we blink a 1000 miles will separate our pasts...
