To See The Sun Rise
I wish you were here, to see the sun rise.
I wish you were here, I still remember your eyes.
I can’t stand the days when you’re gone
The nights just close me in
The hours crawl back to me all alone
I hear your voice, but the sound is my own
As I wish you were here, to see the sun rise.
I wish you were here, I still remember your eyes.
I read the page, I touch the note
Telling me your gone
My body screams in anger and pain
My life will never be the same.
I’m watching the stars and wondering how far
How far I’ll go to find you
And as I watch the too blackened night
I know the answer is not to try to
And as I watch the too silent night
The tears they come to unwind you.
As I wish you were here, to see the sun rise.
I wish you were here, I still remember your eyes.
