Without You





I gave you my heart,
And you asked me to stay.
I never believed,
We would end this way.

You told me you loved me,
And you wanted me to have your kid.
We were in love for years,
And had been together through thick and thin.

You asked me to marry you,
and I gladly said I would.
But then I heard something shocking,
It would change my life that day.

The cops came to my door,
Told me I needed to sit down.
I didn't know why they were here,
So I paced all around.

They told me I should know,
You wouldn't be coming home tonight.
I tried to hold back my tears,
I tried with all my might.

The story was you got in an accident,
And the car was wrapped around a pole.
I couldn't believe what they were saying,
Without you I’m just not whole.

They showed me pictures of the wreck,
And held me as I started to cry,
Baby I'm going to miss you,
And know our love will never die.

It's been a long time now,
And I'm finally learning to cope.
I am getting older now,
And you always gave me hope.

I just want to ask you,
Will you please keep me in your heart, still?
I'm sorry your life ended
Before we got ours to start.

I love you, Baby!
