That empty space left in my heart Staring me down each day Every second cutting deeper My soul slowly fading Since the day you walked away Endlessly searching for the one Who fits in my arms As perfectly as you did Caramel colored hair, caressing Petite shoulders that create perfectly A beautiful frame in which sat The face of an angel Who broke down weathered walls With a brightly lit smile An eloquent touch, strong and delicate That washed my wounds clean Her kiss So soft and sensual A blissfully sweet waterfall Warming a cold heart once shut from the world Not a day, passing by ever so slowly Will that image escape my mind Countless girls pass me by on the street And each time I look away Fearful of seeing you in their eyes As if I'm trying to place Cinderella's slipper On someone else' foot Already knowing the face of who it belongs to

Finding Another You
That empty space left in my heart Staring me down each day Every second cutting deeper My soul slowly fading Since the day you walked away Endlessly searching for the one Who fits in my arms As perfectly as you did Caramel colored hair, caressing Petite shoulders that create perfectly A beautiful frame in which sat The face of an angel Who broke down weathered walls With a brightly lit smile An eloquent touch, strong and delicate That washed my wounds clean Her kiss So soft and sensual A blissfully sweet waterfall Warming a cold heart once shut from the world Not a day, passing by ever so slowly Will that image escape my mind Countless girls pass me by on the street And each time I look away Fearful of seeing you in their eyes As if I'm trying to place Cinderella's slipper On someone else' foot Already knowing the face of who it belongs to
