without you

                 Without You . . .

    I saw without wondering,
how lost I was without you
now I see that without you here
my life is not worth living.

    I fell in love so long ago,
when ever I first met you
and without you here beside me now
I can't go on no more.

    I've loved you from the moment
I first laid eyes on you
now I wander around helplessly
alone I am without you.

    You told me that you loved me,
that we'd never be apart,
but then you turned my world around
when your tore my heart right out.

    I don't know how I can go on like this,
I see you in my dreams,
yet you continue hurting me
so nothings like it seems.  

    Even though you've broke my heart
a thousand times or more
I continue loving you
without restrictions.

    Without you here beside me,
I would rather die
than sit alone each and every night
to smile instead of cry.

    I don't know how I did it
and lived so long without you
but I cannot live another day
without you by my side.
