Lyrics
You're Not Here
Ac 2008 Gene Castelli 614-789-9990
I see you in my coffee cup
Mocha mirror staring up
And my day begins
I feel you in the summer sun
Touching skin, soft and warm
Memories like an old friend
Surround me with your love
You're everywhere
It's not real, You're Not Here
I hear you in the midnight rain
Melody calls my name
But I can't listen to that tune
Like the one we used to share
No radio, but still I hear
I close my eyes and I feel you
Surround me with your love
You're everywhere
It's not real, You're Not Here
I didn't do a damn thing wrong when I lost you
I Can't seem to find my way without the words I need to
Here I lie to myself
Its etched in stone, there's nothing left
Except for when our friends stop by to say
"How you been? Man, it's a sin.
Ain't life unfair?"
I simply say, "You're Not Here"
I see you in my coffee cup
