Story behind the song
She was 13 and leaving for Florida on holiday with her family. He was 14, captain of the basketball team, still sweaty when they kissed for the first time outside the gym. First kiss for the both of them. Soapy? Maybe. But I wrote this song during one impossibly excruciating week away from my 8th Grade girlfriend. A Pause (Diana’s Song) was also on this tape, but I doubt that will ever see the light of day. Rerecorded on 77th Street in the summer before I started medical school.
Lyrics
i know that this may seem weird but i miss you when you're away you know it's true your eyes, your eyes they look at me as if to say "look at me, tell me today" when you're away you know that i miss you your smile is beautiful stick to me like glue baby, i miss you your hair, so dark and lovely i wanna be with you when you're away you know i miss you you look so good in the photograph it's you i think about your kiss, it makes me wanna shout that when you're away you know that i miss you your smile is beautiful stick to me like glue baby, i miss you when you're away you know that i miss you your smile is beautiful stick to me like glue baby, i miss you
