So if I close them, I'd have to seal them shut, so I won't.
Now I can't blink or even think, I'll freeze your image in my mind.
It's the way that you look,
The way that you touch,
It's the sound of your voice,
That I love so much.
It's the smell of your perfume,
The taste of your lips,
Oh baby don’t leave me,
Don’t leave me like this.
As you talk, you like to smile at me and, lean in close.
And as you do, I get to breathe the scent of a, morning rose.
You hold my hand, you understand, I'll love you till the end of time.
Cause' it's the way that you look,
The way that you touch,
It's the sound of your voice,
That I love so much.
It's the smell of your perfume,
The taste of your lips,
Oh baby don’t leave me,
So empty like this.
I was rash and I was cold, but it's worse now I’m alone.
Bring your smile back to me; we can make it now you'll see.
Oh your scent it lingers on, even stronger now your gone.
Didn't get to say goodbye, I'm convinced you didn't die!
It's the way that you look,
The way that you touch,
It’s the sound of your voice,
That I love so much.
It’s the smell of your perfume,
The taste of your lips,
Oh baby don’t leave me,
Don’t leave me like this.
It was the way that you looked,
The way that you touched,
And the sound of your voice,
That I loved so much.
It was the smell of your perfume,
The taste of your lips,
Oh baby you left me,
Without a last kiss.

Love the repatition of the stanza witht a few minor tweaks. Each stanza builds off of eachother very nicely. I adore the last stanza, it ended it veyr well.
It was the way that you looked,
The way that you touched,
And the sound of your voice,
That I loved so much.
It was the smell of your perfume,
The taste of your lips,
Oh baby you left me,
Without a last kiss.

a really long piece but a piece that was well worth reading...this is a beautiful piece and the emotion show in it was amzazing...the flow is perfect in every aspect and the love and the imagery is brillant...

truly awesome
Beautiful words with deep feeling. The chorus is just outstanding and even gave me goose bumps..lol. It is really that good. The flow is simply superb. To feel so strongly about someone is heartwarming. I could certainly see well, hear this playing on the radio...do something with it...or maybe you are or have Music to me is a must have, it soothes the soul, can pick us up when we're at our lowest or just make us relax and daydream awhile, the same as writing does. Beautiful!! No doubt, be very very proud. Two thumbs up..

wow
I'm speechless. its Great.... I really love the way you write.
