So Long, Lover

Here alone, waiting by the telephone

Thinking of you, what else can I do?

Trying to distract, but your photo attracts

Seeing you smile while you hold me in your arms

Sitting by the fire feeling this desire

Growing with the hot flames, calling your name

Daydreaming of memories, of sweet fantasies

Of you and I making beautiful love

And now I ask myself why I’m here alone

Why I’m feeling so much ache and pain in my own home

Where is the comfort?

Where is the bliss?

Even if I lost everything it’s only you I’d miss

So long, lover, without you and I feel the pain

So long, lover, without you and I can’t feel the rain

So long, lover, without you and I’m alone again

So long, lover, without you and it’s driving me insane

Hidden in the blanket, isn’t this romantic?

Until I remember it wasn’t truly forever

Curled up shivering, body and lips quivering

Letting the hundred million tears flow down my face

Wanting to get away, only being able to stay

Glancing out the window like I’m watching you go

They come to comfort, yet all I feel is hurt

Please don’t even try, it just makes it worse

And now I ask myself why I’m here alone

Why I’m feeling so much ache and pain in my own home

Where is the comfort?

Where is the bliss?

Even if I lost everything it’s only you I’d miss

So long, lover, without you and I feel the pain

So long, lover, without you and I can’t feel the rain

So long, lover, without you and I’m alone again

So long, lover, without you and it’s driving me insane

How much time has passed by I wouldn’t know

Gave up counting the days so long ago

And now I’m here enduring this heartbreak

I’m not sure how much more pain this soul can take

Wherever you are though, I hope you think of me

I pray every night for you and I’ll pray for eternity

Stay safe, my love, I’ll always remember you

Just please let me know somehow you remember me too

It’s been so long

So long, lover, without you and I feel the pain

So long, lover, without you and I can’t feel the rain

So long, lover, without you and I’m alone again

So long, lover, without you and it’s driving me insane

(Repeat x2)

Hidden in the blanket, isn’t this romantic?

Until I remember it wasn’t truly forever
