Turn back

 

I think about you all the time,

I wonder are you still alive?

I wish I could turn back the clock,

I wish I could help you.

 

You were my world, my only love.

My every hearts desire.

 

But what a way to end our love, and never again to see, anything but that burning fire.

Why did it have to be?

 

I look for you every night, but I know you’ve gone for good.

I wish I could have saved you, cause now there’d be some hope.

 

Maybe I could learn to live without you by my side.

Maybe one day I can turn and walk away, I know I have tried.

But as I think of you and the moments that we shared,

I truly do not believe this love could ever be curbed.

 

Six years I miss you,

Eight years I’ve loved you.

You’ll never be forgotten,

I’ll never let you go.

My love I know will never falter but grows in every way.

Forever you’ll be with me, till my dying day.
