I can't believe you're gone--it's like you've never left
But you are no longer here, and I am bereft
You were taken from me one black September day
You would still be here with me, IF I HAD MY WAY

I still hear your voice call out my name
I still play all our favorite games
I still wear your pajamas at night
I still look out at the city lights

I still smell your sweet, sexy cologne
I still have your message on the phone
I still wear the necklace you gave me
I still talk to all your family

Can't believe it has been over a year
I still miss you...I wish you were here

I still listen to our special songs
I still like Chinese--still eat at Wong's
I still feel your tender, warm embrace
I still see your rugged, handsome face

I still look at your pictures...and cry
I still can't believe you had to die
I still feel abandoned, all alone
I still feel the grief, down to my bones

I can't believe you're gone--it's like you've never left
But you are no longer here, and I am bereft
You were taken from me one black September day
You would still be here with me, IF I HAD MY WAY

The words to this song came to me during
the night. I woke up and had to write them
down, before they were forgotten. (Now, if
only I had a melody!)

"always remember and never, ever forget"
