In a moment of weakness I thought of you today
Recalling all those precious memories of yesterday
Behind eyes that hide so much, I feel your pain
I knew you were thinking of me too--when I looked outside and saw the rain

I thought about when we called each other lover and friend
The days we thought that you and I would never end
We were in a fantasy world baby, we both know it's true
Still this does not erase the love I feel deep inside for you

The tears started to form behind my eyelashes...they came close to falling down
But then I caught myself and chased away my blues
By recalling your laughter, and I still feel your presence around

We must go on moving forward, and not continue to look back at what might have been
Then maybe one day we can come back together the very best of friends
I know that you are hurting, you and I are very much one in the same
Together though apart, we can deal with this...face this loss and pain

One day the sky will be blue again, this you will come to see
Maybe then it won't be so hard to think of you thinking of me
Tomorrow is a new beginning, one full of hope and love
Just remember we still share the same sky that hangs high above

When you feel alone, and you are feeling scared
Remember me--the person who will always love and care
Though you won't hear my voice, if you listen with your heart...you will still be able to hear me
Just now you and I don't have to live the pain anymore...we are free

Aimster, this was beautiful, tender, full of longing and from your heart.  Sometimes I feel that if I can't be with that special someone, then I try to live by that someones values.  It is my way of still feeling close to them. Hugs.
