I Miss You
I should've given you a reason to care
I should've tried harder to keep you around
Now, we both have a terrible burden to bear
With no way to keep our worlds from crashing down
You told me that this time would go by fast
That you'd be home before I even knew you were gone
But every new day seems longer than the last
And all I have are memories to keep me hanging on
I’ve never had to feel like this before
This kind of pain is all new to me
There are times when I feel I can’t do this anymore
But then, I close my eyes, and your face is all I see
I know that you write me letters everyday
But what I need is to feel your touch
If you were here, you could wipe all my tears away
But then, I guess I wouldn’t be crying this much
I cry because I miss you
And there’s nothing I can do that will change the fact
This is just something I can’t seem to get used to
I’d give anything just to have you back
All I want is to have you by my side
And for things to go back to the way they were
Cause when you went away, a piece of me died
And that’s one pain I couldn’t prepare to endure
I should’ve taken the time to show you how I feel
Then maybe, we wouldn’t be where we are
There would be no painful wounds to heal
And no broken memories to leave a scar
I know it’s too late to change things now
But I can learn from this mistake I’ve made
So consider this my solemn vow
Cause I’ll never again leave a single moment to trade!
