Lost You Anyway.

Now that you're gone,
I'm breaking inside,
Aching just to hear your voice.
I was afraid to take that first step,
Afraid you would hurt me like so many others,
Afraid to lose some one I loved.
But I didn't realize I'd lose you anyway,
And now you're gone.
So much pain,
I refused to let my heart actively seek you,
But it did so anyway,
And I refused to give in.
Can't you see I was just so afraid,
And now I've gone and lost you anyway.
I've spent nights crying,
Spent days trying
To live without your voice,
Always ringing in my head.
I feel so dead.
How do people live without love?
I'll never know,
This is killing me.
Please, come back home to me.
I was only afraid,
Come back,
This is so much worse.
I can face it if you hold my hand,
But without you,
I'm dying.
I was just afraid to lose you,
Afraid to be broken again,
But I couldn't see
That I would lose you anyway,
And now I'm broken,
And praying for you to come back home
