I Still Reach For You
I still reach for you
in the dark, dreaming
you'll be there.
When I close my eyes
I still feel your touch,
still taste your kisses.
I still look for you
every time
I walk in the door
All the tears with you
were never like
these tears without you.
I still see you
sitting with me
in every coffee shop,
every restaurant,
every movie,
every drive
along the coast.
And I still reach
for your hand.
I still open doors
to let you in,
like youβre still there.
Still tell the waiter
table for two,
still order
two glasses of wine,
I still
buy two coffees,
buy two donuts,
buy two
ice cream cones.
All the tears with you
were never like
these tears without you.
All the years with you
weβre not enough
All the days without you
are still too much.
I still reach for you.
Reach for your hand.
I still reach for you.
