Sometimes I lie awake and think of you
I listen for the sound of your breathing
And let the tears fall when I don't hear you
A thousand times a day I think of things I'd say to you
If only you were here with me
Sometimes I hear your footsteps in the hall
And I turn and reach out to touch you
Only to find emptiness where you should be
There are times when I think of how you suffered
How it broke my heart to see you
And I know you're at peace now
Free from the cares of this world
Yet I miss you...every waking hour, I miss you
Don't think that I'll forget you
You will always be a part of me
I will hold you near to me
Forever in my heart....
