I always needed time on my own I never thought I'd need…
“I always needed time on my own I never thought I'd need you there when I cry And the days feel like years when I'm alone And the bed where you lie is made up on your side When you walk away I count the steps that you take Do you see how much I need you right now? When you're gone The pieces of my heart are missing you When you're gone The face I came to know is missing too When you're gone The words I need to hear to always get me through The day and make it ok I miss you I've never felt this way before Everything that I do reminds me of you And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor And they smell just like you, I love the things that you do When you walk away I count the steps that you take Do you see how much I need you right now? When you're gone The pieces of my heart are missing you And when you're gone The face I came to know is missing too And when you're gone The words I need to hear to always get me through The day and make it ok I miss you We were made for each other Out here forever I know we were, yeah And all I ever wanted was for you to know Everything I'd do, I'd give my heart and soul I can hardly breathe I need to feel you here with me, yeah When you're gone The pieces of my heart are missing you And when you're gone The face I came to know is missing too And when you're gone All the words I need to hear will always get me through The day and make it ok I miss you”
