Breathless


I can see you in my mind
Actually...you're all that I see.
And now that you're gone...
There's this big hole inside of me.

You told me to be happy!
You told me to move on...
You told me I could be with someone else
But I guess that you were wrong.

I always think about you
No matter where I go
I've been told that life is hard
But I should have known.

Its hard to breathe when you're around
So I've been left here breathless.
Maybe next time, it'll be easier...
Maybe next time, you won't forget.

<p>Preech it! Also on the last line, if you wrote &ldquo;forget this&rdquo; it would kinda rhyme with &ldquo;breathless&rdquo;.</p><p>I&rsquo;m only saying that because when I was reading in my head, I read it that way.</p>
