shiver in the moonlight,

And look up at the stars, My body is so cold, Without the warmth that is your arms. I sit here and I wonder, If I’ll make it through the week, Cause going on is harder, When your future is so bleak. And all around I see, Reminders of the past, Reminders that the good times, Never seem to last. I wonder how your promises, So quickly disappeared, You said you’d always be there, But I look and you’re not here. You said you’d never let me fall, But I did; I fell for you, And now that you’ve gone away, I don’t know what to do. Life doesn’t seem worth living, Since we’re no longer together, I wish I could just lay down, And go to sleep forever. And in my sleep I’d dream, Of good days done and gone, Days that were so perfect, That nothing could go wrong. I never thought I’d see the day, That we would fall apart, That love would pass us by, And with it, take my heart. I wonder why when we got close, We were then pulled asunder, But I guess I’ll never know, I’ll just be left to wonder.
