How To Survive Without You
The dark nights are getting colder
I can no longer feel the warmth of
Your hands upon my shoulders
How can I survive knowing
Never again shall I see your beautiful face
When all I ever hoped for is to share an eternity
In the comfort of your embrace
The last thing I ever wanted
Was to hurt you, but I have
Now, it is me who hurts the most
Your memory haunts me like a ghost
Feeling your presence wherever I go
What peace can I find
When you've infiltrated every part of my soul
Like a flower in the desert
Left to wither and die
Are the tears for you I have cried
Missing the love I once found
In those gentle raven eyes
How can I survive without you by my side
The blue withdrawn from my skies
Your love never again to be mine
