the first day without you in a long time

Last night I saw the tears in your eyes
I knew you were going to cry
I won't tell anyone 
I'll keep it between us

I didn't really laugh today
Without you 
How about you?

I've just been sitting here
Draining out people's voices 
With Matthew And The Atlas 
It's good background music, you know?
I'm trying not to cry, you know?

I was the only one you really said goodbye to
I wanted to say "I love you"
I didn't 
I should have hugged you because 
Last night I saw the tears in your eyes
I wanted to hug you

I'm counting the days till the 25th
