There will never be another you
Eyes have been flooded with the eternal absence of your being
Your face is the only thing I want to be seeing
The voice of you have bounced off my walls
You have been there for comfort of my worst downfalls
You were there to make my screaming soul calm
Why do we only know what we have until it's gone?
What you have spoken told me how to feel
What you have spoken told me wounds will heal
You've shown me that we are alone Through you you've shown that by myself I'm whole
Because if I feel nothing for my enemies
Revenge should be what makes us happy when the demons have left us alone
The everlasting absence of you has left me numb
Why do we only know what we have until it's gone
You have made my sullen heart still beat in the sun
Why must we weep and morn because of your divine intervention
There is a God that hates me and you have shown me that's alright
Your words have gotten me through my seldom nights
Oh why do we beg for the summer when the days are short and cold
Our breath is all we see on those days of bitter frost
You are one of the last people we want lost
Why do we know what we have until it's gone?
