How I needed you
How I grieve now you're gone
In my dreams I see you
I awake so alone

I know you didn't want to leave
Your heart yearned to stay
But the strength I always loved in you
Finally gave way

Somehow I knew
you would leave me this way
Somehow I knew
you could never stay

And in the early morning light
After a silent peaceful night
You took my heart away
And I grieve

In my dreams I can see you
I can tell you how I feel
In my dreams I can hold you
And it feels so real

I still feel the pain
I still feel your love
I still feel the pain
I still feel your love

And somehow I knew
you could never, never stay
And somehow I knew
you would leave me

And in the early morning light
After a silent peaceful night
You took my heart away
I wished, I wished you could have stayed
