I Know Your There But I Cant See You

I’ve been lost without you since the day you died
I tell everyone I’m ok but I lied
I can sense your presence to my core
This cold felling I just can’t ignore
I see lights in rooms that are dark
When there is no sound I hear your voice remark

Your spirit moves me I feel it through
I know your there but I can’t see you

Candles blow out whenever lit
I’m waiting for you so here I sit
The floor creaks but no one moves across
I cannot handle the burden of your loss
I know you’re here to calm me down
There’s not a stir when others are around

Your spirit moves me I feel it through
I know your there but I can’t see you

Finally a vision appears to me
The waiting is over and now I see
You have returned to tie a loose end
And let me say goodbye to you my friend
I say farewell and give you my love
You vanish into thin air and return to heaven above

Your spirit moved me and I felt it through
You were there and I did see you
