Away so far

It’s late at night, I’m all alone
sipping my wine, staring at the phone.
I look up at the night sky and often think
how could everything change in just a blink?

Oh, if you’re up there, I’d do anything
to bring you back, I’d even sing
the song of love, till it makes me bleed
out love, darling, will you pay heed?

If only there was a way I could let you know
how much you mean to me, you’d never go
away so far that all I can do now, dear
is whisper a wish, that you were here.

I’d watch the sky turn light; a shade of pink,
’cause I can’t sleep, there’s so much to think.
The memory of your brown eyes so bright
is enough to keep me warm through the night.

My friends tell me I should find someone else
but is it wrong if, in your thoughts I find solace?
Alone I am, not so much when I think of you,
and I know, no love can ever replace you!

Maybe one day, things will change
and I’ll learn to be happy in new ways.
Maybe I’ll get used to living without you
but forget you —honey, I can never do.

When my pillow would no longer be wet,
when I won’t curl up, cursing my fate,
maybe then I’ll fly, feel alive again
then somehow maybe I’ll get rid of this pain.
