Distant Memory

Its been such a long time
But I still see you next to me
Everything I see seems to remind me
Of whats now a distant memory

But the ring is still on my finger
With tarnished skin beneath
Showing I havent taken it off
Ive never stoped loving you, I hope you see

Your recorded messages on my computer
All thats left of your voice
So soothing and calm
Its the only choice

The half written letter on my desk
Unsure what to say which I havent already said
How to express the love in my chest
Holding onto you by this last thread

Our song fills my ears
Were in this together now
Never held so much meaning
I wonder why, I wonder how

The sun setting on my past
Once a reminder of my dreams
Now it seems Ill never see the sun again
Darkness consuming whats left of me

Its been such a long time
But I still need you by my side
Everything I see seems to remind me
Of whats now a distant memory
