Hello BIABers!! Thanks so much for the nice comments on Missing You Tonight......much, much appreciated!!! I always read all of your thoughtful comments and get a lot out of them, but since I'm not on the forum as much as I'd like, I don't get much of a chance to respond. This is a song written for someone like Old Blue Eyes. I don't know why I write songs for someone who has been gone for 30 years or so, but I just love the older style. Anyway, I'd love to hear your thoughts on it. Take care all! Greg

Your Summer Smile

Oh your summer smile
How it warmed my heart
Now I live in Exile
A ghost ship drifting now that we’re apart
No direction home
Guess I finally learned
The meaning of alone


Oh, those lovely eyes
A sight I’d never seen
Such a sweet surprise
The way they sparkled when you looked at me
Now, it feels more like a dream
Now I’m wide awake
And now the world seems

So lonely
There’s only
Regret and misery
A hole inside that time can never fill
I’m broken
You’ve spoken
The words I’ve always feared
And emptiness is all that I can feel

Oh those winter nights
So dark and cold
When I turn out the lights
I think about the times when I had you to hold
Comfort of your touch
Now I have memories
But sometimes they hurt so much

So lonely….
