This poor heart is broken,
But you can't see a mark
I've been lost without your presence,
I've been stumbling in the dark

It's not something you might notice,
Not something you'd have known
I've always been independent,
But now I feel alone

I never would have guessed
That I'd miss you quite this much
The pain, it seers me like a flame,
Oh, I hunger for your touch

And I will mourn you always,
Lockwooth
And I'll be searching for you always,
Lockwooth

You're in my soul
Till the end of time
Till we meet again,
You'll be on my mind

You know when you were here
Everything was fine
And now I'll mourn you,
Lockwooth

All the memories
You left behind
All reminders of
Our too brief time

Yes, we used to sun,
And we used to fly
What was it
That had to make you die?

When I think of the softness
Of your hide
The feel of your breath
And glow of your eyes

It's been too long
Living this past turn
When I think of you
My eyes still burn

I used to hold you close
And lean on you
We were always one,
Now we're split in two

I wish you were here
To say those words
That comfort me
And ease the hurt

And I will mourn you always,
Lockwooth
And I'll be searching for you always,
Lockwooth

If they asked if I would live for you,
I would
If I'd been asked if I would die for you,
I would

You've looked into my heart,
And you've shared my soul
But I never ever
Thought you'd go

If you were here
We could soar the sky
And I wouldn't have to ask
Myself just why

You were once right here,
But now you're gone
Oh, how can half a man
Live on

And I will mourn you always,
Lockwooth
And I'll be searching for you always,
Lockwooth

You're in my soul
Till the end of time
Till we meet again,
You'll be on my mind

You know when you were here
Everything was fine
And now I'll mourn you,
Lockwooth

Lockwooth...
