De leegte zonder jou
is met geen pen te beschrijven
De leegte zonder jou
zal altijd bij ons blijven
Maar vele herinneringen
verzachten onze smart
Voorgoed uit ons midden
maar altijd in ons hart

I Dont know your name.
Dont know you that well
But I wouldnt say I dont know you at all
You lived close by, in the house on the corner
I saw you a lot, and we often smiled and said hi.

You Stood outside having a smoke.
Alone or together with your friend
And The cat standing casually at the window.

Who you were, and what you did
I never really knew
But I will surely miss having you around. And that short moment of a smile. And Im surely not alone

We used to say hi
When we passed ways
We used to turn and smile
Then went along
Each our own separate way

I feel so sad I didnt smile at you more
Or spoken with you about silly little things
Or invite you over for a nice meal
I should have known you much more

I feel so sad you couldnt find your way
And finding more reasons to stay.
Or that I couldnt show you
The beauty of ‘here and Now’,
I should have smiled at you more

I should have smiled so much more.
Cause I guess you werent doing that well
I feel sad that I wasnt one to who you could tell
And smiles were not enough,
looked like Something was wrong, you had it rough.

You made your choice, no other way, but Still I think I should have smiled at you more

I imagine you and your backpack, jumping on your bike.
Going somewhere, where I dont know.
But when you’d come back, I will promise I smile much more

If you could come back Id give you a warm welcoming smile.

But The blinds on the windows, wont open today
No smoke on the corner. No cat, no noise.
I look at your bike, a silent witness of a place,
where once We used to smile at eachother and say hi.

I should have smiled at you more
