My Promise

I count the minutes that've past
Since i last saw your face
You left a permanent memory
Here in this silent, lonely place

I can still hear your voice
In the dead of night
I can still feel your touch
When things are not alright

I would give my life
To see you for one more day
Just one more time
To say what i want to say

I accepted the fact
I understand that you're gone
Even though i don't know why
Or what possibly went wrong...

I still visit where you sleep
As i lay a rose to the ground
I sweep off your stone
And talk when nobody else is around

You promised me you wouldn't leave
But that's the only promise you didn't keep
I still have so much pain
So much pain, it shoots so deep

But i promised to love you forever
To never leave your side
After everything i said to you
Never have i ever lied

So if that means talking to the ground
Then that's what i have to do
And I'll do it until i die
Since i promised to never leave you
