Where would you go

Where would you go

That I cannot follow?

For how long must I wait

until we meet again?

What would I do

in times that I miss you?

Where would I go

in times when I long to see you again?

How must I spend

the nights without you?

How do I bear

each morning that you’re not there?

Shall I ever smile again?

Will I ever laugh again?

Will I ever face the world again

knowing that I’m not alone?

Why must you leave me?

Why must i cry these tears

when you’re not here

to wipe them all away?

Why must I suffer

the empty days without my beloved?

Why must I dream

without you by my side?

the days shall never be the same again

I will never be the same again

without you

the life of my soul,

the joy of my heart,

the light in my eyes,

the hope of my dreams,

the comfort of my lonely nights,

without you my beloved,

I grieve and cry,

I grope and stumble in the dark,

I weep with all my soul

I desire with all my heart

I let go of all of me that you took away with you

I keep all of you that is in me,

and will always remain in me

wherever I may go

I wait and pray and hope

I will look forward to each brand new day

thankful for all that I’ve had and will always have

thankful for the sun that shines again

believing and hanging on

believing that life will go on

it can’t help but go on

it shall go on

and in so going

there really is no end

only mornings and evenings

and life that never ever ends
