i can't be without you |
6 months ago I watched you take my heart I tried to guard it But my attempts didn't matter You just stole it right out from my chest And turned everything around In a world where I thought no one cared You saw me unlike anyone else I let you have my heart And you held it in your hand Heated days were filled with us together And together we stayed as seasons changed Late night phone calls were always exchanged Followed by visits full of love and lust I wouldn't mean to But my head told my heart to find you And night after night I needed to see you As time when on, it just got greater Missing you more and more each day I lay in my bed and imagine you beside me Hoping that it will ease the pain for just a little I feel you touching my skin And your face in my hands I hear your voice so clearly Like it's right in my ear I see your smile And your eyes looking right into mine So many things are left unsaid But there was nothing else to say I would have given up everything To just lay in your arms for a little while Now I'll try to go back to life before you Just with an added sense of pain But everytime I close my eyes I know I'll remember the quiet nights That I drove through your sleeping town With the streetlights so bright And your tv glowing in the window The gentle way you'd touch me With your voice so soft It felt like we were the only ones alive And I wanted to feel that way forever. |
