Since I've found you, my life’s more complete.
Just being around you, makes my living sweet.
Do you think it’s true, fate wanted us to meet?
Do you feel it too, or is it just me?
When you’re away, why does my heart ache?
Why do I feel lost without you?

You changed my life more than you know
You made things right, why did you go?
For the first time in years home feels like home
You killed the fears that stopped my mind growing
You made the day, made me whole again
Made me glad to have lived what I'd been through

You painted your colour over my black and white life
Gave love like no other, gave sight to blind eyes
Shared your smiles and laughter,
kept me warm on cold nights
Hid your personal disaster by swallowing your pride

No words I can say to prolong your short stay
Except I LOVE YOU so much,
without you life’s not the same

Since I've lost you, it’s hard to move on
No one can replace you, now that you’re gone
Memories linger, where your presence once shone
To run, laugh, love, live with you is all I want.
