Quiet Time


its the quiet time that i wish would go away
oh give me mountains of moments
friends laughing and living
of debates and decisions
paperwork and problems
ways to fill the empty minutes that tock by
since you are not here anymore
because when i don't have those mountains of moments
friends laughing and living
of debates and decisions
paperwork and problems
i immediately start missing you
and thinking about you, where you are and
where you will be
how would it be if you were back with me
and i realize as i watch my sun set
that you arent in my bed anymore, watching the sun
come up with me
you aren't in my eyes anymore seeing what i see
that you don't hear my voice falling into your melody
and as i toss and turn to think of something else to
do
someone else to be, anything else to see
you haunt behind waiting to come back to my memories
its the quiet moments that i wish could go away
