I'll Never Get Over You

If only I had seen it coming 
But I never knew 
The day before you left me 
I had one more day with you 

If only I could turn back time 
And bring back yesterday 
If only I could tell you 
All the things I need to say 

If only I could hold you close 
And kiss you just once more 
If only I could see you smile 
As you walk through that door 

Walking down this lonely road 
Lost, alone and sad 
Holding onto memories and dreams 
That we once had  

I need you here to guide me 
For I know I’ll lose my way 
Without you I’ll crumble 
Without you I’m not okay

I still don’t understand the reason 
Why you had to leave 
I don’t know how to deal with this 
I don’t know how to grieve 

Looking in the mirror 
I still see you in my eyes 
And always I will love you 
Because true love never dies 

Everything I feel inside 
Gets stronger everyday 
The love that’s in my heart for you 
Will never fade away 

Everything we shared 
And all the memories made together 
Will live within my heart and soul 
They'll stay with me forever 

As long as there is night and day 
As long as skies are blue
As long as stars still shine so bright 
I’ll never get over you...

As long as dawn still follows night,
And time keeps passing through,
As long as there is breath in me,
I’ll never get over you..
