South of Heaven

I see your eyes in my memories,
gazing up at the skies,
it’s your face I see.
And somewhere I know you see me too,
so I search the stars
for a glimpse of you.

Though you’re miles away,
I feel your touch at the end of the day.
My heart knows how far we are apart
when the sunset fades
and darkness starts.

Somewhere I know I’m on your mind
as you chase dreams you can’t seem to find.
And somehow just knowing you’re alright
makes it all worth it,
south of heaven tonight.

My body’s weary, my mind worn thin,
but my heart burns with a fire within.
Restless in the night without you near,
I look to the skies
and sense you out there.

As I lay me down to sleep
I feel your soul and hear your heartbeat.
Miles away,
but I know you’re still here,
deep within me,
in my heart, sincere.
