Pitiful Tears
Pitiful Tears
You went away and left me sweetheart
I know through no choice of your own
I am missing you every day since, my dear
The days are now years that you left me alone
One foot in front of the other
Is how I have coped with passing time
The years creeping slowly by
With me remembering when you were mine
All the good times we shared together
The laughter and all the fun
So much of our life we enjoyed
Being together when each day was done
I will love you all the days of my life sweetheart
Many years now it has been since you were laid to rest
But my heart will never forget the love we shared
As long as it continues to beat in my chest
I have lived these many years without you
One foot placed in front of the other,,,
Some days I wonder why do I do it
And other days I have yet to discover
Now I have no idea what I need to do
There must be a reason I am still here
So I will try real hard to figure it out
Count my blessings, and dry up these pitiful tears
