All I can do is stare in the distance
Look around at the world
Where you once stood
Now Empty
You were my everything
Always there and understanding
My other half to make me whole
Gone before i knew
My heart is scattered
Upon your grave it lies
Just remembering your sweet face
Again and again I cryed
Another year without you
Emptiness never quite fading
The pain always lingering
But now my tears are dry
The rivers of sorrow never quelled the pain
So I hold on to the tears
Waiting to see you again
To cry with you
Enjoying the life I have
Because I know you'd want me to
I put on a strong front
to get me through
Like wandering for 40 years
Looking for my paradise
Your waiting arms
Your shining smile
Key to my release
Tears washing away the dust
From this desert of separation
I will be saved from
