Missing Sun
It’s been years since the last time I held you
Since the last time I’ve seen you smile
It’s been years since I’ve seen my sun shine
Been too long, there’s only clouds now
You were my sun, my only shining light
With a fire no one else had, that burned ceaselessly
With a stubborn attitude and a cute blush
With a sweet smile and tender heart, that’s why I fell in love
Hey, it’s been so long since I last heard your laugh
Too long since the last time I heard you sing
Too long since I last felt your warmth
Too long, too long, it’s just been too long
And now all there is are growing clouds of gray
There’s no light peeking through, no gentle breeze
It’s just cold here as I stand alone
The spot next to me where you should be cruelly empty
You are my sunshine, my only shining light
My sunshine who kept all the clouds away
My sunshine who made my life complete
My sunshine, my everything
But now there’s nothing left for me
Not without the sun to warm my frozen heart
And as I hold this heavy rose bouquet
I wonder why it is that it’s not in your hands
So on my knees comes the falling rain
The bitter tears that taste of sorrow and of a broken soul
And your hand's not there to wipe ‘em all away
Nor your gentle scoldings that brighten up my day
And with the falling tears drops the bright bouquet
Right in front of that marble stone that says your name
And I can’t believe that it’s been so long
So long since I’ve felt your light
You’re my sunshine, my only light
You made me happy, and kept gray clouds away
You’re my only sunshine, so please, I beg the world
“Don’t take my sunshine, my only love away”
But it’s too late now, you’ve gone away
Sleeping soundly in a casket, clothed in white
Where you can’t hear me as I cry out for you
Where you can’t see me here kneeling before you brokenly
It feels as if I didn’t say it enough
That there wasn’t enough time to show you
To make you see just how much it was
How much it was that I love you
You’re my sunshine, my only light
You made me happy, and kept gray clouds away
You’re my only sunshine, my everything
And the world took you away, my only love...
I love you...
