James D. Stark


I didn't realize
The way it would be without you
It came as a surprise
The emptiness without you

I didn't realize
The way i'd feel without you
It came as a surprise
My thoughts dwelling upon you
Remembering the times
When life was brightened by you

Absence makes the heart grow fonder
I wonder, do you miss the times we shared

That night you kissed me in my sleep
Was i dreaming
I'll never wake up to you again

I didn't realize
The way i felt about you
It came as a surprise to be dreaming about you
Of all i've left behind my only regret is of you
It doesn't seem right that my life should be without you

In the night time i want you near me
To be beside you
To be in the presence of your beauty
To be alive
To feel the bliss in your arms
To be there
To hold you
To kiss you
To give you my love

I didn't realize
The way it would be without you
But i can't compromise
This path i must walk without you
I search the stars to find
Someone to take place of you
But then i realize
There's no one else quite like you
