From Now On
From now on...life is just living...barely that is
What I wouldn't give to have her back
Too hold her...too talk to her...too see her smile
She was all that was within me, now I can't breathe
It hurts so much...but doesn't hurt enough
But I'll keep the pain for it derives from her
I still smell her hair...within the air...everywhere
She consumed my entire being, willingly
Now it's empty...now so lifeless...now she's gone
Gone and unaware that she took me with her
All my love...all my hope...all my dreams
She carried away all the best parts of me
Left with suffering...left with nothing...left alone
Every single remaining day I will wish for you
To be here again...by my side again...alive again
Even if I know that the act is futile
I will never give up...I will always suffer
Because the suffering is all that I have left
My love...My life...My wife...
I will never say goodbye
I love you...
