Under That Old House

Looking back, we miss the life we lived
With the promise of your words and all that you did
We want you to know how much we're missing you
And how we are missing what we'll never again do...

Under that old house your smile still lives on
Your laughter haunts the nights that's forever gone
And though we have found every quiet night to cry
Still all we can do is sadly close our eyes...

Looking back, we miss the life we shared
What we wouldn't give to pass by that house and see you sitting there
Every day that you are gone we are slowly losing heart
Cause without you, everything loses life when we're apart...

Under that old house that light still shines in your eyes
All our words spoken still remain inside
Four years ago today God wanted you back
And in one short moment we lost the will to laugh...

We know we've said it a million times or two
But we want you to know we love and miss you...

Saun




Sauni :)
Have you ever known the color grey when the nighttime finds you weak
I have, I've walked that road each time; that's where my angel sleeps

Saun,

I sincerly hope that the pain you feel at the loss will be healed. This was heartfelt, and it brought goosebumps to my skin.
NO, that is not a tear I pecked away... (*it was two!!)
