A loss doesn't get any easier, but there's always hope

Lately I've been losing my mind

trying to find

the years that I've been leaving behind

I open up an album or two

all I see is you

I can't believe these years have gone through

 

Why do I

feel as if everything is a lie?

Why can't I

just come to terms and say goodbye?

 

 

Lately I've been running around

wearing a frown

putting up things that should be down

My mind may not be fully keen

but I think it's a sin

to let go of these feelings within

 

Why did you

leave me here all alone?

Why can't you

come back and make these feeling be gone?

 

 

Lately I've been feeling so old

my head had gone bald

I'm getting senile - so I've been told

One thing I can still remember

a wonderful splendor

The years that we have spent together

 

I know that we

will one day join back in harmony

I know that we

will share eternity.
