Only For You
Life is precious beyond compare
Even though I no longer see you standing there
What couldn’t I help but miss?
Thoughts abound how it’s come to this
Alone and confused
Feeling mentally abused
The twinkle in your eye
That lit up the sky
The smile across your lips
That warmed me to my finger tips
The look you gave to me
That set my heart free
Free, to beat only for you
From day to day long and true
You touched my life beyond compare
So isolated now, beneath despair
Realise I must that life is unjust
My heart must beat, again I must trust
Was I at fault keeping you from harm?
I so miss those days you spent on my arm
Thinking back so little time we shared
Thinking forward never again will we be paired
I will love again of that much I’m sure
But just at this moment I’m too damned sore
But I will tell you this
I yearn for your kiss
The above my message to you
This much is true I'll always love you
