How much I’d miss you

I didn’t know

How much I’d miss you


Or how that void would grow


Each day that passes


Takes a part of my heart


Each tear that falls

Reminds me we’re apart


But in my pain

I can find a smile


Because I know


All the while


I would not miss you


If you didn’t mean so much


I would not shed a tear


If I didn’t need your touch


I can’t wait to throw my arms around you

And feel your strong embrace


I can’t wait to look into your eyes


And gently kiss your face


Missing you is difficult


But it also makes me see


I need you in my life

Because you mean so much to me.
