lyrics

We missed you tonight
(You) should have been here to reminisce
To pass a smile
You should've been here
(You) should've been here to call me out
To call my bluff

(I) should've been there to talk you down
But no one can hear you if no one's around

When did you go?
How could you leave without a word
I only needed one word
You abandoned the road
And let the tradewinds guide you home
You always traveled alone

I should've been there to talk you down
But you're the only one who can knock yourself down

Stand me up taller, I can't fall
Stand me up once more, I won't fall

Were you ready to go, did you put up a fight?
Did you darken the room, or did you light up the night?
Were you first in line when your number dropped down, down, down with the weight of the world?
Did you raise up the sail at the first sign of light?
Did you have enough time to make all your wrongs right?
When you set the course west, did you give yourself one look back?
Leeward shoal or cresting wave?
Did you follow the winds of a man that couldnt be saved?

(I) should've been there to talk you down
But no one can hear you, you kept no one around
