Words left unsaid too late to speak
That gentle smile your eyes did seek
Will never reach these lips of mine
As the curtains close on treasured times
Hands once held now feel the cold
Your warm embrace I\'ll no longer know
And in this crowd I\'m so alone
Numbed to touch within my soul
Sweet perfume that filled the air
A scented image to say you\'re there
Is fading clean on closeted clothes
And what\'s left to smell are dust and bones
Raucous laughter loud and clear
A ringing bell upon the ear
Is an echo fading in this home
So loudly silent now I\'m on my own
The photographs all gather dust
And pots and pans all turn to rust
As my eyes betray me where I look
A constant reminder of what was took
And every sense betrays the truth
That I\'ll never stop missing you
There\'s just no reason anymore
Because you are dead and forever gone
So I awake now every day
In this premonition of a grave
With my only piece of tiny hope
To hear you say \'No, I\'m not\'
