When your busy day is over and done
And the drive home is nearly o'er
You begin to think of your nights alone
Knowing life can offer so much more

The emptiness that meets you at home as you arrive
Echoes of footsteps beat a dull rhythm in your ears
You have tasted love and you shouldn't be alone
Oh how much do you miss that she is not here

Her scent is embedded in all your walls
You feel her presence in all places she walked
Holding to dreams when you can't hold her
Wishing for her, all her laughter and talk

So in my dreams I play the lead part
The passion I feel burns so deep within
Then awake realizing you're nothing without her
You need her love, you need your best friend
