-Waking up without you here

Is harder every day

I reach out to hold you near

But then I have to wipe my tears away-

You’re so far from me

And there’s nothing I can do

I wish this would be easy

I hate crying over you

-Every day I don’t see your face

Is like a hard punch in the chest

The nights I don’t get to hear your voice

I lay awake all night; I can’t seem to rest-

My open eyes, and open heart are waiting

But all my hope and all my faith is fading

As I woke up alone today, I thought to myself

I wonder if when you wake up

Do you reach out for me?

I miss your smile

I miss your kiss

I miss everything and more

I don’t want to but I can’t help it

And I don’t tell you

That I can’t stand this

Because you need this to be the way it is

You have your life now

And I’ll live with that…

I see no other way

But if I could just have one thing, for one day, for one moment

Tomorrow I’d be waking up, in your arms

The things you’ve showed me,

Babe, you’ve showed me love

And with that you’ve showed me how to live this life

I just don’t want to have to live it without you now

Well baby, I miss you, more then I’d ever get to say

But I’m afraid that if I told you, you’d throw everything else away

And you’ve worked so hard to get to where you are right now

I’d hate myself and you would too someday

And I can’t let you get away

Some day things will work out once again

But until that day

I’ll be here, in this bed

Waking up without you
