But my hopes faded with the setting sun and now it can never be.
I miss the way you used to smile, your eyes dancing in the light,
And I miss your arms around me, warming me deep into the night.
You pulled me from my ruin, and inspired me with your song,
Yet, you never realized you were the one who made me strong.
You were a rock on which to cling amidst a sea of pain,
And I believed you'd always be there, like the sunshine after rain.
I spoke to you softly with my mind, telling you of my love,
But never noticed the warm summer skies darkening up above.
There was a roll of thunder, a flash of light, the wind turned sharp and cold,
A wave came up, I lost my grip, and you slipped from my hold.
Then you were gone and I alone, with my pain and grief,
You sacrificed yourself for me, I stole your life, I was a thief!
I would gladly give my life to bring you back from death,
And I'd profess, to you, my love, with my dying breath
But Fate has had the final say, I cannot change the past,
And I dream that someday we'll be together, forever, at last.
So I will not curse our star-crossed love, though it has brought me pain & sorrow,
And I'll live each day as I did before, yet hope for death tomorrow.
