You were my strength, when I was tired,
our love was my reason to start each day,
now my life is so consumed in darkness,
I've lost my faith, I can no longer pray.
Our life together was full of happiness,
God had blessed us through the years,
now it's full of sadness and memories,
you're gone, you left me with my tears.
When will the sun shine for me again,
when will my silver lining reappear,
a sad love song plays on the radio,
another lonely night without you here.
Your bible on the dresser reminds me,
when you died, all my faith died too,
the devil seems to be winning me over
I sit and drink, I sit here missing you.
Your sweet face is smiling up in Heaven,
happiness surrounds you forever more,
I know if I don't change my sinful ways,
God will not let me in, Heaven's door.
