Life isn't the Same Without You Right from the time I lost you Life just hasn't been the same, I wish that I had one more chance to see your smile again. The sun still rises with each dawn, night still follows day, but there's always something missing ever since you went away The tide comes in, the tide goes out, the sands of time pass by... ...but thoughts of you will never fade I hope you're peaceful wherever you are Life has surely lost it's sparkle The world often feels blue But what gives me strength and hope is the precious memory of you. .
