I woke up to another day
Far from where your body lay
How much better life would be
If you were always here with me
But life loves its twisted games
To test our strength and fan the flames
Pushing us close to the edge
Challenging all we'd once pledged
So much happens I can't share
But through it all you're always there
In my thoughts you never fade
The memory of you so carefully laid
No matter how time flies by
Far from you I'll still rely
On knowing that in my mind
You're beside me intertwined
No matter how the moments drift
I'll fight for every precious gift
Of time with you however rare
Each second close beyond compare
The world spins its distant tune
But I'm drawn close by thoughts of you
Every hour though far away
Pulls me back to where you stay
In dreams I see your face so near
The warmth I crave so pure so clear
Through the miles my heart will go
To meet yours as if you know
No matter how time flies by
Far from you I'll still rely
On knowing that in my mind
You're beside me intertwined
No matter how the moments drift
I'll fight for every precious gift
Of time with you however rare
Each second close beyond compare
So much happens I can't share
But through it all you're always there
In my thoughts you never fade
The memory of you so carefully laid
No matter how time flies by
Far from you I'll still rely
On knowing that in my mind
You're beside me intertwined
No matter how the moments drift
I'll fight for every precious gift
Of time with you however rare
Each second close beyond compare
So until we meet again
I'll cherish moments that remain
Holding you within my soul
Forever keeping my heart whole
