Lyric Just As Though You Were Here

I ll wake each morning and I ll promise to laugh
I ll say "Good morning" to your old photograph
Then I ll speak to you, dear, just as though you were here

When purple shadows start to welcome the dark
I ll take the same old stroll we took through the park
And I ll cling to you, dear, just as though you were here

But I know so well that distance and time will finally tear us apart
The farther you go, the longer you stay, the deeper the doubts in my heart

Each night before I wander off into sleep
I ll bring to light the tears I ve buried so deep
Then I ll kiss you, my dear, just as though you were here

And when I hear a lonesome train, I m afraid
I ll think of all those trips we never quite made
Fragile dreams that we planned
Then I ll reach for your hand
Just as though, just as though you were here
