I take a walk down to the shore    and I wonder how much longer I'll sustain these steps    It's been a month since I've been gone    And its been a month too long since    You have graced me with your presence       I smell your scent on every single shirt I wear    I found pieces of your hair stuck to my suit case    I try to call but the reception here is weak    And it will still be three more weeks until I get home       I hope your waiting by the door when I get home    I don't want anyone to see me here alone    It's not enough to say I think about you now    But that was all I had, but that was all I had    But that was all I had.       I walk the boards alone tonight    And try to fill this empty space inside my chest    I take Atlantic home tonight    And every neon light in sight spells out your name       And every morning that I wake    I make a point to check the date, in case    I slept an extra day.       I cross as many numbers out    But every time I count them    There are so much more       I hope your waiting by the door when I get home    I don't want anyone to see me here alone    It's not enough to say I think about you now    But that was all I had, but that was all      I hope your waiting by the door when I get home    I don't want anyone to see me here alone    It's not enough to say I think about you now    But that was all I had, but that was all I had
