Longing

I close my eyes
 I still feel you near me
 The sound of your voice ringing in my ears
 I reach out for you
 Believe that you'd be somewhere
 I cannot fight this emptiness in me
 But I know it was not your choice to leave this world
 Can anyone take away this pain?
 Longing for a time that never comes
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for your hand to touch my skin
 Oh, it seems so far away
 I close my eyes
 Recall our common moments
 Pictures hurt and haunt me every time
 Memories quickly appear and sting like a needle
 Please take away this pain from me
 Longing for a time that never comes
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for your hand to touch my skin
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for a heart that does not beat
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for a smile upon your face
 I'm missing you so much
 Longing for a time that never comes
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for your hand to touch my skin
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for a heart that does not beat
 Oh, it seems so far away
 Longing for a smile upon your face
 Oh, I'm missing you
