Lyrics
I still miss you when you're not here,
Even though you're always here,
When we walked along that wooden pier,
The moon so white and the sea so clear
And its the way you look
That keeps me here
With you tonight
And its the way you are
That keeps me here
In your arms
I felt the love that I never had here
With my arm around you against the wind and fear
I still miss you when you're not here
Even though you're always here
And its the way you look
That keeps me here
With you tonight
And its the way you are
That keeps me here
In your arms
No I don't know what to say
Lost in love's final day
And love flies up over head
Like the dawn becoming red
