When I'm sad I remember you,
how you always tried to make me smile,
I still smile when I think of you,
the friend I grew to trust and love.
I laughed with you,
talked till late in the night.
Now you're gone,
and I'm alone here.
I cry wracking sobs,
you're not here to hold me,
to wipe these tears away.
I trusted you, let you in,
my walls never came up around you,
I allowed you to see the weak side of me.
Now you're gone,
and my walls have enclosed me again,
no one will ever see what you did.
I sit alone,
sing into the night breeze,
can you hear me?
I'm smiling only for you,
letting myself go,
only for you.
I'm sorry I couldn't meet you,
never got to say what you meant to me.
These words I write are for you,
I'm letting my pain show,
only for you.
My tears are hollow,
my hands are cold,
but they're all I have left,
the only things I can still feel.
I asked you to stay,
but you're long gone.
Here in my heart,
but it'll never be the same.
It should've been your birthday today,
but you aren't here to enjoy it.
I'll never be able to see your smile,
to give you a hug,
to make you laugh.
I'm smiling for you,
laughing only for you,
and these tears I've cried,
they're because I loved you.
