I CAN SEE
YOU SMILE
I CAN SEE
YOU SMILE
When I closed my eyes,
I could see you smile.
A tear rolled down my face...
and I cried for a long while.
You were supposed to be there
by my side,
You promised me forever,
but then you suddenly died.
The pain I felt was like
nothing I had felt before,
I was so lost and alone,
just drifting through life
knowing I couldn't take
much more.
Then a thought
interrupted my grieving,
like a single ray of sun
shinning through the rain.
What if you knew that
every time you crossed my mind
it caused me pain?
With that thought,
I promised myself that I could
miss you, but I would never
morn you again.
You were my everything,
my lover, and my friend.
When I close my eyes,
I can see you smile.
A tear rolls down my face...
and I smile with you!
