So lonely it seems
I look at your chair
No life nothing right
And wish you were there

The laughter we shared
The dreams that we had
The failings of one
Caused all to be bad

Her smell lingers in the air
A sweet, sweet odor
The memory of a caress
A touch, a kiss

Her smile holds fast in my mind
A ray of sunshine
A vision of hope
Beside the gloom

I want you to want me
But know not what to do
I need you to need me
The way that I need you

I want to see you smile
The way you used to do
I need to have you smile
Just between me and you

I want to be the man you need
I need to be the man you want
I wish I knew how to get to there
I wish I knew what to do
I need your help to guide me
To what we both can be

I long to wake beside you
To hold you in my arms
Alone I sleep without you
In a bed that’s way to big

I miss the way you laugh
I miss your sweet caress
I miss the smell of your body
Your cooking I miss the most

I reach for the pillow
Where you rested your head
I cuddle it tightly
As I lay in the bed

I catch a scent
As I pull it to me
The scent of you
A scent of me

I wish the circumstances were different and you weren’t so far away
I’m slowly growing to love you, more and more, day by day
I find myself thinking of you as I fall asleep at night
And dreaming sweet dreams of you until the morning light

I wake and think of you again in many different ways
Finding myself wanting you seems to fill my days
To find someone as good to me as you always seem to be
Is something that in my life has always seemed to flee

I want to feel you beside me as I go throughout my day
I need your strength and confidence that never goes away
I long to to have you near me, close enough to touch
Oh I love you dearly, I love you oh so much

I find myself thinking of you as I go to bed
Wanting to feel you, touch you, hold you
Feeling lost because you are not there
Alone I am, alone

Last night when I made you cry
I would have sooner torn my heart from my chest
Than do that to you. 
Making you feel hurt and alone
