When You Were Here

Loving someone with all your heart and in just a blink of an eye, they're just...gone.

The evening was cold yet warm at the same time

For Your hands were soft and warm in mine

And without a care in the world we lie

Under the stars that conquer the sky

 

I remember when you used to hold me close

And we'd happily sing to a song you chose

Oh how it felt like home in your warm embrace

But I guess we were never meant to be in the first place

 

I would gladly spend my forever with you

But you had to break my heart in two

As I lie awake with your voice I could still hear

I cry every night, wishing you were here

 

You left me but I waited for you

I waited all night ‘til the sky turned blue

But you never came back to me

And I was left broken by your memory

It pained me to see you again

For my heart keeps shattering but here I am

Taking out the rose you gave

And gently placed it on your grave

 

It was cold that night, only cold

No warmth and no hand to hold

But life goes on and I will be strong, my dear

As long as I have your memory of when you were here
