Listen: Master Recording (Sample)
We both lost the life we loved
The life we made together, gone
We were together in the silence
When the light finally dimmed
Was the hardest thing to be included in
Now when I stare at the empty chair
I’m reminded, the last words you said
As you took my hand in yours
Weight of the moment was heavy
I could not have loved you even more
Now we reach but cannot touch
Loss has taken all control
Toughest place to be included
Beautiful but so secluded
I still cherish how we held
When the light began to fade
I see you struggle for your breath
The tears I tried to catch as they rolled off your face
And soaked into the old leather chair you stare at today
Now I reach and pass right through
The floorboards creak, when I am near you
I want to calm your fears
It’s torture every day
Caught inside this ghost parade
I never meant to leave this weight
A quiet house you learn to hate
Hardest part of being there
When you're alone staring at the empty chair
Remembering your life with me
Do not worry, I’ll be fine
I don’t want you to cry
I long for the scent of your perfume
I close my eyes, you’re in your chair
Your love keeps me here
I am the burst of cold air in the room
I am those roses in their bloom
You said, "See you soon."
For now, put away the grief of me
