I know you're happy when you smile   I know I'm going out of style   I know it's taken me awhile   10,000 miles from you   But everything is still O.K.   'Cause I'm closer everyday   Think of all the times and places   If I was next to you   Which is more than I would have to say   Step across the open spaces, that lead back to you      And you know that I won't let you go   Sometimes so near and now so far (now so far)   Retrace the paces that have brought me here   Close my eyes and move along   To where I belong         Thinking, looking, hoping that I'll find a way   You know, that I, can't stop counting all the days   You know I miss you more   That you're not here to say   More than yesterday      I know sometimes that in my past   Lost direction had to ask   I know I wouldn't ever last   Without you   But everything is still O.K.   'Cause I'm closer everyday   Which is more than I would have to say      If I was next to you   What can I do      Thinking, looking, hoping that I'll find a way   You know, that I, can't stop counting all the days   That you're not here to say   You know I miss you more   More than yesterday   Step across the open spaces, that lead back to you      Think of all the times and places      And you know that I won't let you go   Sometimes so near and now so far (now so far)   Retrace the paces that have brought me here   Close my eyes and move along         To where I belong   You know, that I, can't stop counting all the days   That you're not here to say   Thinking, looking, hoping that I'll find a way   More than yesterdayYou know I miss you more
