It always seems that when I am happy
Life always finds a way to bring me down;
words that once filled my heart with joy
only haunt me and fill me with pain.
Why is that it hurts when I take a breath
when you are no longer by my side?
Why does it seem the heavens send the rain,
a drop for every tear I've cried.
Why, when I am so used to seeing you,
do I suddenly find myself alone?
Alone to wander in the darkest night,
Stumbling to try to find my way back home.
Do you not know I care for you,
that your smallest word gave me wings?
Did you never understand that in your smile
I could hear the heavenly angels sing?
I'm sorry if I never told you I cared
or showed you how much you ment to me,
Now you are no longer by my side,
And all because of my folly.
Know that my heart will miss you sorely
And that my eyes will never dry;
Until that day they behold you
As you are once again by my side.
