GOD I MISS YOU

So full of mercy with a smile that reached your eyes
It let me know that you could see the fear inside
And how I wish you were here by my side
To whisper again,  “It’s gonna be alright”

But I’ve moved on and somehow overcome this pain
Finding peace took time and a whole lot of faith
I know one day I will see you again
Still the nights are long and I’m hanging on……

‘Cause no matter where I go
You are never very far
And down this lonely road
I carry you in my heart……

God I miss you
How I miss your face
Every memory, every dream
Speaks your name

And though this life goes on
It leaves a burning ache
I know my broken heart is slow to heal
‘Cause God I miss your face

At times I thought I could do better on my own
But chasing rainbows could not fill this empty soul
‘Cause I lost sight of the things that matters most
Like the ones I love and God above…..

‘Cause no matter where I go
You are never very far
And down this lonely road
I carry you in my heart……

God I miss you
How I miss your face
Every memory, every dream
Speaks your name

And though this life goes on
It leaves a burning ache
I know my broken heart is slow to heal
‘Cause God I miss your face
