The Weight Of Missing

The world today has changed You're no longer here and I feel strange Now every moment spent with you And the love within my heart feels like a wound And though it hurts, it feels good too In the warmth of every memory I have of you While I live on And though love comes with pain I never love in vain I hold on to all those days The times I had you here in my embrace The biggest gift I ever knew Was to love you knowing that you love me too And now the big sleep keeps you safe As she lets you close your eyes in her embrace You can lie here forever in her heart As long as we're apart I can't forgive our stolen time That I can't just have you sit here by my side And I know I'll miss you all my years But the weight of missing you is worth each tear And still I feel you everywhere In the sun that rise each morning In summer air In the mountains that sings In the blossom in spring In the autumn that cries In each tear that I dry In the shadows, in the snow In the candle that glows I can feel you I can feel you You'll be with me until we meet again Our darling and my friend
