The moment that you died

The moment that you died, my heart split in two.

One side filled with memories. The other died with you.

I often lay awake at night, when the world is fast asleep.

And take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks,

Remembering you is easy, I do it every day.

But missing you is heartache that never goes away.

 

I hold you tightly within my heart, and there you will remain.

Life has gone on without you, but never will be the same.

Another, slightly different version:

The moment that you died my heart was torn in two,

one side filled with heartache, the other died with you. 

I often lie awake at night, when the world is fast asleep,

and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon my cheeks. 

Remembering you is easy, I do it everyday,

but missing you is heartache that never goes away. 

I hold you tightly within my heart and there you will remain.

Until the joyous day arrives, that we will meet again.

Another, slightly different version:

The moment that you died, my heart was torn in two,

one side filled with heartache,  the other died with you.

I often lie awake at night, when all the world’s asleep

and take a walk down memory lane, with tears upon on my cheek.

Remembering you is easy, I do it every day,

but missing you is heartache,  that never goes away.

I hold you tightly in my heart  and there you will remain.

Until my life on earth does end, when we will meet again.
