LEAVING WASN'T ENOUGH

I've seen you walking a thousand times
In places you've never been.
I've seen your writing on envelopes
I know you didn't send.
I've heard you laugh at gatherings
I know you couldn't attend.

Leaving wasn't enough
To make my love end.

I've felt your body warm on my skin
When I was alone in bed.
I've felt your lips brush against mine
Even as I slept.
Last night I dreamed you came to me,
And we were one again.

Leaving wasn't enough
To make my love end.

Time and distance are nothing.
Love lasts through it all.
Hopes and dreams and memories
Keep a lonely heart full.

Leaving wasn't enough
To make my love end.
