Every Moment of Every Day

Every Moment of Every Day A heart broken in two is a pain I know very well It’s like being in prison within a very small cell The loneliness it brings seems more than you can bear The pain is so great when your heart starts to tear There are tears on your pillow when you go to sleep every night There are hands around your neck and they seem to get tight You struggle to breathe because your airway feels blocked As you lie in your misery and spend time watching the clock Your life has no meaning as that thought comes into view Your heart begins to pump slowly as it’s ripped all in two You feel your life’s over and you’ve given all you can give But I assure you little angel there’s still time to live The world on is axis she revolves cause of you Your heart is what gives the skies the color of blue Your kindness is what gives the warmth to the sun Your faith can move mountains I’ve only just begun Your smile and its splendor stops the world on a dime The softness of your voice can stop the hands of time The stars get their sparkle from the color of your eyes Your hugs bring the sunshine but that’s no surprise Your love is a treasure more precious than gold Your kisses sweet like chocolate or so I am told So when the tears start to flow and you can’t see your way Know I’m there in your heart every moment of every day
