To Be Without You, Is Like Askin' the Day To Start Without the Sunshine

To Be Without You, Is Like Askin’ The Day To Start Without The Sunshine

When I arise in the morning
I think of you
When I lay it down to sleep
I think of you too
You always on my mind
And to be without you
Is like askin’ the day to start without the sunshine
I can’t eat
I can’t sleep
You like that nourishment for my bones
Without you I get weak
You’re my dessert
When I need something sweet
You mean the world to me
And as I sat behind those walls
I feel like a man in a dark hall
Unable to see the outside
Cause the here and now sometimes clouds my mind
You everything I need and then some
Like Forrest Gump did it
I just wanna run
Into your arms
But it all comes in time
But I wanted to let you know
That your always on my mind
And to be without you, is like askin’ the day to start without the sunshine

Oh, Clyde, this is true love for sure! How wonderful you have someone who makes you feel this way! I hope she is in your life now and forever. Really enjoyed the reference to Forrest Gump and running into her arms! She is, surely, your sunshine! Love, Carolyn
