I miss your smell and your style br And your pure abiding way br Miss your approach to life br And your body in my bed br Miss your take on anything br And the music you would play br Miss cracking up and wrestling br Our debriefs at end of day br br These are the things that I miss br These are not times for the weak of heart br These are the days of raw despondence br And I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this br br I miss your neck and your gait br And your sharing what you write br Miss you walking through the front door br Documentaries in your hand br Miss traveling our traveling br And your fun and charming friends br Miss our Big Sur getaways br And you watch you love my dogs br br These are the things that I miss br These are not times for the weak of heart br These are the days of raw despondence br And I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this br br One step one prayer br I soldier on br Stimulating moving on br br I miss your warmth and the thought br Of us bringing up our kids br And the part of you that was with your stick-tied handkerchief br br These are the things that I miss br These are not times for the weak of heart br These are the days of raw despondence br And I never dreamed I would have to lay down my torch for you like this
