Moving closer to a familar face
Afraid to speak, afraid to move
but somehow I know I have to
You still seem to make me smile
Your stiff jawline and grasping wilds
You turn to me as I approch
Then turn away, as a ghost
Step by step my limbs collapse
wondering if you I could really grasp
I look up your name in a local cemetary
find it, and come closer to where you are burried
silenced on the holly ground
a feeling that can't subside
I wonder if I will ever leave your side
I couldn't believe it that you were gone
That I missed everything
That there was never a chance to hear my song
I humed a tune into the wind
droped a flower
and turned around on whim
I smiled at your ghost
and again it faded away
I miss you so much
and that is a feeling that will always stay
I kissed the wind and walked away
sung to the faded face
and told myself I would always remember this day.
