A Lover's Cry

by ForeverAndADay   Jun 6, 2009


I need you like a heart needs a beat,
like a bird needs wings to fly.
My life is so different, so incomplete,
everyday spent without you, gives me reason to cry.

I need you like a child needs a mother,
like a plant needs water to grow.
My heart is filled with pain, no more laughter,
I need you more than you'll ever know.

I need you like day needs the sun,
like the sky needs stars to shine.
My body feels so cold and empty,
living without you feels like a crime.

I need you like summer nights need a breeze,
like my aching heart needs a healing.
My soul is weak, my legs are numb,
I need you like my body needs feeling.

I need you like a little boy needs his blankie,
like a baby girl needs her favorite bear.
My lungs cant take to much more,
its hard to breathe when you're not there.

I love you from the depths of my soul,
from my feet to the top of my head.
My love for you has truly grown,
it gets stronger with every tear I shed.

I love you for who you are,
but mostly who I was when I was with you.
My days are long when you're not here,
my skies are no longer blue.

I love you for the smile you put on my face,
for the love you put in my heart.
My life will never be the same,
if we have to keep living apart.

I love you even though you're with her,
and she's most important in your world.
My love is strong, it will always carry on,
I'll forever be your girl.

I love you today, I'll love you tomorrow,
you can see it in my eyes.
My love for you will last forever,
you can see it through the tears of this lover's cry.
