Another day

another day has passed away
	and night again does fall

and this morning when I awoke
	I hoped somehow that it would be

like it was so long ago
	knowing though it would not be

some how as dreams fade away
	it is so easy to believe

that today will not be
	just the same as yesterday

and somehow you will be here
	just the same as you once were

oh how my heart does yearn
	just with you to be again

and to hold you in my arms
	but I know it will not be

and yet I did somehow all day
	have these feelings that wouldn’t slip away

Sorrowing again throughout the day
	as I do now every day

and leave me mourning in the dark
	at the end of another day
