Year
another day has passed away
and night again does fall
and this morning when I awoke
I hoped somehow that it would be
like it was so long ago
knowing though it would not be
some how as dreams fade away
it is so easy to believe
that today will not be
just the same as yesterday
and somehow you will be here
just the same as you once were
oh how my heart does yearn
just with you to be again
and to hold you in my arms
but I know it will not be
and yet I did somehow all day
have these feelings that wouldn’t slip away
Sorrowing again throughout the day
as I do now every day
and leave me mourning in the dark
at the end of another day
