	Story Behind the Song I wrote this song after hearing news of a local girl dying in a car wreck very close to Christmas, the outpouring of grief was incredible. I know some of her freinds and felt like writing a song for the situation. This is take #1. Lyrics here in the dark the moon it spends the night with me all the times we shared and all those things we said we would do they haunt me, and I just find myself remembering I see you smile, I hear you sing no, you're not here, you're everything it's the next best thing the days are often far too long and every moment feels so wrong I'll dream tonight and you'll be waiting it's the next best thing the snow in your hair your voice, it's ringing in my ears but the sun still shines reminds me I've got nothing to fear, I miss you and I just find myself remembering I see you smile, I hear you sing no, you're not here, you're everything it's the next best thing the days are often far too long and every moment feels so wrong I'll dream tonight and you'll be waiting it's the next best thing
