Last Breath

What do i do-when every thought of you-reminds me of what could have been 


There's nothing i have-that i wouldn't give-to feel you and hold you again


Late nights i wake up-looking around me-hoping to see that you're there 


But when i realize you're gone-and im still all ALONE-im angry that life's so unfair 


There are a thousand tears-and they're drowning my soul-im screaming and dyeing inside 


Memories are torchure -and i CANT escape them-it feels like im losing my mind 


I swear i can hear you-you speak to me softly-gently you whisper my name


Is that you that i feel-standing behind me-i feel like im going insane 


You say I'll ALWAYS feel you-that im safe in your arms-that you love me-and you're not 
afraid 


But i cant stop my tears-they continue to flow-and sweetly you kiss them away 


I just CANT UNDERSTAND-i searched for SO long-and JUST when i found you at last 


You were taken away-in the blink of an eye-forever making our future the past 


Now im left here without you-and i feel so alone-im empty and hollow inside 


When they took you from me-they took half of my soul-with you the hope in me died 


And EVERYONE says that im lucky-that i left your house when i did 


But if i could turn back time-and do it again-id have stayed despite what was said 


I would have been there beside you-standin united-as you were looking head on at death 


I would have been there to hold you-to tell you i love you-and to forever TAKE IN YOUR 
LAST BREATH ..........
