holding you close as you breath softly in your sleep
love courses through my veins, so deep
your smile gives me butterflies I can't shake
and I can't begin to describe the feelings you create.

the smell of you still lingers on my skin and clothes
as it starts to fade, I start to loath
that your scent will no longer be around
as I say goodbye I've fallen to the ground  

you're not gone forever, I know
but I can't help letting my emotions show.
I already miss you, even before we said goodbye
I will get through this, or at least I'll try.
