You promised to never cause these tears.
It came to this somehow.
You were always there through the years.
You've gone away its over now.
They all came true, all my fears.
Nothing feels right without you here.
Without a sound you flew so far.
You stole forever from our reach.
No more beautiful eyes filled with stars.
Your mistakes, lessons learned, friends will preach.
So much time spent raising the bar,
None of this seems to fit with who you are.
Sometimes it seems I can't go on without you here.
Can't believe your up there flying free.
Have to pull it together, got to make it through.
Hurts so much to know you loved me.
Hid my feelings so well, I wish you knew,
Always everyday, I loved you too.
