Night’s streaming in my window as I lay in bed
Pillow’s cold where you used to lay your head
And sleep escapes me like a thief on the run
Lying here waiting on the long lost rising sun
My friends keep saying that I need to carry on
But how am I supposed to live now that you’re gone
My heart is aching for how we used to be
And loving you is but a distant memory
Chorus:
‘Cause I’m sitting on the dark side of the sun
Where night falls before the day’s even begun
And my mind slowly comes undone
Sitting here on the dark side of the sun
Why did you have to go so far away
Didn’t you think I wanted you to stay
If only I had known our days in the sun
Would soon escape us like a thief on the run
And though I know you’re in a better place
Somewhere you won’t be bound by time or space
My selfish heart still misses you so
And loneliness is the only friend I know
Chorus:
’Cause I’m sitting on the dark side of the sun
Where night falls before the day’s even begun
And my mind slowly comes undone
Sitting here on the dark side of the sun

Ok so it's been quite a while since I've written anything, and a sappy song is what I came up with. Ah well...
Not personal in any way.

I had to check to make sure this wasn't personal. *whew* (cause, you know... that anniversary is coming up next month.... )
I love it! It's morose, but not so much that I want to punch myself.
"‘Cause I’m sitting on the dark side of the sun
Where night falls before the day’s even begun" love those two lines! So full of emotion and longing.
