(With You) Gone
I've been there for you
Like best friends should
I've helped you through
Like I said I would
I've never strayed from your side
I've always stood by you
I found you when you would hide
Though bad times came, we still pulled through
I can't believe you're just a memory now
I can't figure out exactly how
I need you more than ever
but you're far away from me
We promised to be together,
Forever, but now I just can't see
Why you had to go, why I lost you
I miss you so much now, there's no way
I can keep on living without you
No way to get through my day
With you gone.
I stare at the pictures, sitting in their frames
With your face, smiling up at me.
I can barely see through the tears; in vain,
I try to forget the day you first met me
You were so shy; your smile was so small
As I played with the hem of my black t-shirt
The people pushed past us, we didn't notice at all
When I walked away, you seemed so hurt.
I can't believe you're just a memory now
I can't figure out exactly how
I need you more than ever
but you're far away from me
We promised to be together,
Forever, but now I just can't see
Why you had to go, why I lost you
I miss you so much now, there's no way
I can keep on living without you
No way to get through my day
With you gone.
Why'd you have to leave me like this?
So suddenly, as you wished to go.
You have no idea the pain this inflicts
And I just want you to know
I need you more than ever
but you're far away from me
We promised to be together,
Forever, but now I just can't see
Why you had to go, why I lost you
I miss you so much now, there's no way
I can keep on living without you
No way to get through my day
With you gone.
