Without a trace

by Emily parsons   Sep 26, 2005


I was just a girl
When you left for a better place
But you were my soul , my heart , my world
Then you left without a trace

Theres not a single day your not on my mind
Or a night when i dont hear your voice
I know you will never be here again
And cruelly I dont have a choice

You praised me for being different
You held my hand when i needed it most
That day when all of us went to the beach
I thanked god that we were so close

Slowly the angels stopped singing
And the devil held out his hand
You had no choice but to take it
Its a pain i cant understand

Coughing up blood all over the floor
That image is locked in my mind
I was so scared , and soon you knew
So you stayed smiling all of the time

Through all of this hately effect
You'd sing me to sleep once more
Kissed my head , stroke my hair
Forget the blood on the floor

And then one day , mum looked sad
Id never seen her cry
She said you would be gone for a very long time
But i refused to say goodbye

The years have passed and how Ive grown
I hope you can see me now
I know that you would tell me straight
I know that you'd be proud

So the biggest part of my life
Was taken away that day
But Ive never forgotten your beautiful face
It hasn't faded away

I was just a girl
When you left for a better place
You were my heart my soul , my world
Then you left without a trace

*Nan i miss you everyday.My Protector.My friend.My idol.I love you.Wish you were here.*
