To see you when I wake up
Is a gift I didn't think could be real

To know that you feel the same as I do
Is a three-fold utopian dream

You do something to me that I can't explain
So would I be out of line if I said
I miss you?

I see your picture
I smell your skin on the empty pillow next to mine

You have only been gone ten days
But already I'm wasting away

I know I'll see you again
Whether far or soon

But I need you to know that I care
And I miss you

    General Comment:im really connecting with this song somehow. im hopelessly in love with this girl from my town and no matter what i do i cant get over her. i tried everything, i barely even speak to her anymore and that was working for a bit. i felt over her but i was with her the other day and she just gave me this look and i was instantly reeled back in. now i find myself sitting here, missing her, listening to this song and typing my heart out to a bunch of people who dont care. this is what love does. it makes you crazy.

    General Comment:i went away on vacation right after my girlfriends birthday. for her birthday, i made her a CD with only the acoustic bersion of this song on it and i put a note in the case that said "I'm not going to see you for a month. Play this if you think about me" she loved it.

    My Interpretation:this has always been my interpertation of this song,ive always believed that hes singing bout a lover that has died cuz how he says,"you have only been gone ten days,but already im wasting away." and when he also says,"i know ill see you again,whether far or soon." i took those lyrics as he'll be seeing this person again when he also dies whether it be soon or in many many years. So yep theres my interpertation.
