its been a while since we last spoke
and i was thinking that maybe you would be lonely
are you okay where you're at?
is it nice there?
dont you wanna come home soon?
i really do miss you.

i'm sorry we didnt get to say
all that we really should have said
we took it all for granted
that tomorrow would be here
i'm sorry that i'm here
i'm sorry that you're not
i wish that you
could be here.

its been a while since we last held each other
i was thinking maybe you missed me
theres a lot of people down here
who want to say
that they
miss you too
i hope you're happy
where you are now
i hope its better
than where you were on that day.

did you look outside?
did you wonder what was going on?
did you ask yourself
the same thing
that i asked me?
will you make it safely?
will i make it home?

that day changed our lives
mine and the world's forever
i kissed you goodbye
i didnt know
it would be
the last.

nine eleven
never thought it would be
the way its become
to the world and me
so far away
yet so close
you are.
i just want to touch you
i just want to kiss you
and tell you
how you're missed.

i know its time to move on
i know we have to go further.
i cant live in the past
when i need the future.

i dont think of tomorrow
as definitely coming.
theres always that chance
i wont see it coming.
i'm sorry i lost you.
i'm sorry you couldnt come home.
please dont ever think.
that we dont love you.

dont ever forget.
that you are remembered.
let the others know please.
they wont be
forgotten.
