Missing someone

Have you ever missed someone so much that it took your breath away?

"From Where You Are"~
Lifehouse

So far away from where you are These miles have torn us worlds apart And I miss you Yeah, I miss you
So far away from where you are Standing underneath the stars And I wish you were here I miss the years that were erased I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face
I miss all the little things I never thought that they’d mean everything to me Yeah, I miss you And I wish you were here
I feel the beating of your heart I see the shadows of your face Just know that wherever you are Yeah, I miss you And I wish you were here
I miss the years that were erased I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face I miss all the little things
I never thought that they’d mean everything to me Yeah, I miss you And I wish you were here So far away from where you are
These miles have torn us worlds apart And I miss you Yeah, I miss you
And I wish you were here

In my dreams~

SOUTHERN LIFE

If you want a glimpse of Southern life,Come close and walk with me;I'll tell you all the simple things,That you are sure to see.You'll see mockingbirds and bumblebees,Magnolia blossoms and dogwood trees;
Caterpillars on the step,Wooden porches cleanly swept;Watermelons on the vine, Strong majestic Georgia pines Rocking chairs and front yard swingsJunebugs flying on a stringTurnip greens and hotcornbread,Coleslaw and barbecueFried okra, fried corn,fried green tomatoes,Fried pies and pickles too.
There's ice cold tea that 's syrupy sweet,And cool, green grass beneath your feet;Catfish nipping in the lake,And fresh young boys on the make.You'll see all these thingsAnd much, much more,In a way of life, that I adore.
