How have I lived

How have I lived these past years?
Not knowing you,
How did I get rid of those tears?
I'm so dependant now,
it's hard to not need you.
I'm so dependant now,
It's hard to believe it's true.

How have I lived these past years?
Not knowing you.
Being so close,
nose to nose,
not feeling a thing...
You kind of blended like those.

How have I lived these past years?
Not having you in my life.
Because now it seems...
You are the person,
the only one.
Who holds the love I'd never stake...
and the only person,
the only one,
Who I don't find fake.

How have I lived these past years,
without you by me?
How have I lived these past years...
And still stayed happy?
You've become a part of me now,
the flow to my river.
I have no idea how,
thinking about life without you..
gives me a shiver.

How have I lived these past years,
without you and remained civil.
But what I worry about more,
what would be really terrible.
Is how I will live these next years,
if you leave me,
How will I live these next years?
