Lyrics
it's just a lazy pace in the city
a slow walk to the end of a block, or two
it doesn't take a whole lot of thinking
or mapping out the path
just move on down, get out of the way
i wonder when it's over
judge me or love me still
you seemed to always want me near
passing by your favorite place
it's not the same you see
not without your smiling face
i've lost a part of me
it never seemed to matter, the timing
you always acted eager to go, with me
i've thought so much about when you left us
and what i could not do
the final stroke was only for you
i kept my eyes upon you
your trusting gaze so true
i would not ever tell a lie
passing by your favorite place
it's not the same you see
not without your smiling face
i've lost a part of me
all of the years you'd given to me
pile up in mem'ry, over reacting
look to my side expecting to see
the you that i took away
passing by your favorite place
it's not the same to me
not without your smiling face
i've lost a part of me
