Today was wonderful, but you weren't here...
Today is great, and bright, and yet you are not here...
I left you somewhere, my heart knows where...
I do not remember the sound of your voice, or the feel of your hair, your hand, your body...
I see your picture and wonder, knowing it isn't you I see...

Capture the light, capture the sea, capture my heart...
I so suddenly saw you, wanted to know who you are...
Fading from my heart, I no longer see...

Where are your words to ease my hurt?
Where is your voice to soothe this burning, terrible burning, inside?
Where are your hands to stop the bleeding, to hold my heart safe?
Where has my heart gone, that it would so heal?
What is my love, that it would so roam?

I am fine, but you are not here...
I do well, but you are not here...
I am more whole than ever, but you are not here...
Perhaps I never needed you at all...
