From Where You Are

So far away from where you are (Momma is in heaven and I'm here on earth, which is most likely far away from what we know) 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 (A sad depressing, lonely night looking at the sky and the stars getting lost in grief) And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased (When Momma died, years that should of been will never be inevitably) I miss the way the sunshine would light up your face (Momma has a happiness and comfort and unconditional love like no other.) I miss all the little things I never thought that they?d mean everything to me (All the memories through life, were taken for granite. Even just the slightest thing when your Momma dies you miss.) Yeah, I miss you And I wish you were here

I feel the beating of your heart (I know you loved me. But reference to the heart suggests feeling it and not for long.) I see the shadows of your face (THE "SHADOW" OPPOSITE OF A PREVIOUS LYRIC OF "SUNSHINE LIGHTING UP THE FACE" IS SYMBOLIC OF GRIMNESS AND DEATH AND SORROW AND END.) Just know that wherever you are (Implies heaven but not sure the singer truly believes in heaven) Yeah, I miss you And I wish you were here

I miss the years that were erased (The time that got taken from them ) 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
