PLAY

I put in that old tape...just to hear your voice

I know the pain will follow...anguish is not a choice

I miss you every day...smile through the tears

Seems like yesterday...damn the lonely years

I think of all the things...that you said to me

Never to hold back...always live your dreams

You are very beautiful...I'm so proud of you

You know I'll hold your hand...no matter what you do

~~~*Chorus*~~~

God I miss you...and the love we had

I think of you and smile...but it still hurts so bad

I'm looking up to Heaven...don't know what else to do

Sending you my love...praying it makes it through

You're no longer here...night bleeds into day

I just can't help myself...my shaking finger pushes 

Play

~~*~~

The reason no one's picking up...is that we're headed to the lake

You can come and join us...you'll find us there all day

The laughter that follows...gets swallowed by the beep

My heart constricts with sorrow...I hold my head and weep

There's nowhere else to go...no place to run and hide

It's all an empty chest...no treasure left inside

Your favorite books remain unopened...your car's still in the drive

Reminders of the reasons...that I once felt alive

~~~*Lyrical Bridge*~~~

I want you to come back...It's Hell I'm living through...

Everything is dark...The beauty left with you...

They all say to learn to live without you

But I just can't find my way....

Play! I push play...

~~*~~

~~~*Chorus*~~~

God I miss you...and the love we had
I think of you and smile...but it still hurts so bad
I'm looking up to Heaven...don't know what else to do
Sending you my love...praying it makes it through
You're no longer here...night bleeds into day
I just can't help myself...my shaking finger pushes 
Play
