As I breathe in the night air
I feel your arms around me
But I know that you’re not here
Not laying right beside me
I turn around and stare
At the empty space around me
And wish that you were here
To break the silence in me
I feel your kiss against my lips
Pressed hard against me
I feel your hands go down my hips
Warming the ice inside me
I see the memories like clips
The tears trying to drown me
My whole heart your hand grips
My pain coming to choke me
I get that piece of mail
That shows you’re thinking of me
And it never seems to fail
That smile that comes across me
My heart and soul set sail
To hear your voice inside me
Your words they tell a tale
Of how you understand me
